Building ETL/ELT pipelines and data workflows using Python — SQL-based data modeling, workflow orchestration with Airflow, and containerized pipeline environments. Move data reliably. Understand the system underneath.
OS installation and configuration, Linux setup, software troubleshooting, VM environments, and general computer support — getting systems running clean from the ground up.
Building an L7 HTTP load balancer in Go from scratch — covering round-robin and least-connections algorithms, health checks, and backend pool management. Architecture grounded in AWS ELB, NGINX, and HAProxy with a focus on cloud infrastructure and IaaS scalability patterns.
Building the load balancer was the easy part. Understanding why it worked — and what that revealed about how little I actually knew — was a different story entirely.
AI can write code — but it can't replace system-level thinking. Why skills in systems, memory, concurrency, and networking will matter most in the age of AI.
