Solution Architecture

• Overhauled internal processes, saving 8,000 hours

  Overhauled internal processes, saving 8,000 hours by improving software architecture, systems, and scheduling efficiency.

• A tenth of the cloud bill, and nothing lost

  Optimized budget costs 10 times with zero loss in productivity for an international client by reimagining the overall infrastructure, eliminating unnecessary services, and relocating from the AWS cloud.

• Built infrastructure that still runs years later

  Planned and implemented new infrastructure functionality for internal and external systems, building solutions durable enough to still run years later with minimal change.

• Built the entire core infrastructure from scratch

  As one of the first hires, designed and built the entire core infrastructure and supporting processes from scratch for a green‑energy SaaS startup, laying the foundation for rapid growth.

• A whole company on one small server

  Ran the whole company on one 512 MB single‑core host — a git forge, a web server serving seven domains, Tor, two alternate‑protocol servers, backups and intrusion banning — by treating 464 MB of usable memory as the binding architectural constraint.

• Split every operational secret per host

  Split the four per‑host operational secrets after establishing that two hosts sharing one dead‑man's switch alert less than two switches, not more, and that a shared backup passphrase makes two hosts one repository.

• An app that ate 41 MB a second, stopped

  Stopped an application filling memory at 41 MB a second — a recorded 111 GB of compressed pages on a 36 GB machine — by bounding every event stream, subscribing by event type and putting a rate budget on logging, taking 610,996 log lines down to 1,411.
