I am a product owner & software engineer with 5+ years of experience building hard-tech IoT applications, documentation, and communities in the open.
At balena, I am building an open-source hardware testing jig & automation framework to test (embedded) operating systems directly on an IoT device. Leviathan is an e2e testing framework to test operating systems on multiple workers & Autokit is a plug-and-play automation jig used by our customers & partners to support BalenaOS on their hardware. I wear multiple hats at work. Apart from my full time commitment, I run Mixster to enable startups and organizations to "right" their docs, build their engineering culture and create content pipelines from scratch.
I am a documentarian in life and have been documenting my life, try to speak more about my work, and organize even more conferences & meetups. I believe in ethical open-source contributions, radical candor (friends don't let friends be wrong), and trying cheesecakes in every place I visit.
