APOGEE-01 — telemetry frame assembly
PUS-C compliant TM frame, CRC-16 encoding, mirror parser on the ground side. The firmware fits in 3 KB of stack, zero malloc. The moment the CCSDS doc becomes readable.
I put AI into production — not a POC that dies in the demo, but a feature that holds and whose token bill doesn't spiral (−87% inference cost on my last SaaS). React / Next on the front, and I go down to C firmware when the field leaves the browser.
Master's-level, expert in secure software development: what I ship to production, I also know how to defend.
Five dossiers. Two show what I do best: ship AI to production without burning the budget, and secure what matters. The rest lives in the archive.
Operational logbook — what plays out under the hood, written short, while it's fresh.
PUS-C compliant TM frame, CRC-16 encoding, mirror parser on the ground side. The firmware fits in 3 KB of stack, zero malloc. The moment the CCSDS doc becomes readable.
Enemy behaviors (idle / patrol / chase / search) split one file per state. The 400-line switch had become unmanageable. Simpler to reason about, test, and extend.
The site read too generic. Pivot to a committed operator-briefing direction: MGS phosphor palette, Anton for display, Departure Mono for HUD. Codec easter egg as a bonus.
Strategy selection driven by the incoming profile (junior / senior / career change). Three days comparing outputs, measuring, tightening — down to −87% cost. No magic: measure, choose, measure.
Full audit of a critical web stack. Flow mapping, threat scenarios, reduction measures. Deliverable: a detailed report and prioritized remediation plan, landed on an executive desk.
PWA dashboard for technicians under full sun. 7:1 contrast, 56 px touch targets, offline mode. UX proven in the field, with gloves on — not in a meeting room.
When an AI provider drops at 2am, the cloud router fails over to the next one without a break. Anthropic SDK direct, never LangChain: less magic, more control.
First structured position. Legacy PHP / MariaDB on one side, early-adopter React 19 / Tailwind 4 on the other. Navigating two eras of code in the same day.
A project, a scoped mission, an architecture question, or the urge to talk C?
