Dual-career engineer — designing space-rated hardware and thermal systems on the ground, shipping full-stack software in the cloud.

01 / About

Hardware The thermal path

My career began where physics meets spaceflight: designing and analyzing thermal control systems for aerospace hardware. I built detailed SINDA/FLUINT and Thermal Desktop models to predict orbital and transient temperature profiles, and drove every design through ECSS verification. Along the way I modelled mechanical enclosures in Rhino and Fusion 360 — learning that a component which survives on paper must also survive machining, assembly and launch.

Software The code path

The same engineering instinct — model, iterate, verify — pulled me into software. I moved from thermal scripts to full-stack development, shipping applications with Node.js and Python, and tooling my own network with Sing-box and V2RayN. Today I treat systems the way I treated spacecraft: instrumented, tested, and designed to stay reliable under load.
