I architect secure, autonomous data ecosystems on dedicated infrastructure. From nanosecond market telemetry to enterprise MarTech, I build pipelines that don't break.
I design single-tenant environments that bypass cloud bloat. From bare-metal API extraction to the final visual render, the pipeline is secure, resilient, and engineered for exact business requirements.
Catalyst is a single-tenant data engine engineered to process complex telemetry at scale. By decoupling stateless compute from long-term storage, it delivers deterministic performance, self-healing orchestration, and complete architectural ownership.
Infrastructure: A dedicated Hetzner VPS with LUKS Full Disk Encryption (FDE), insulated by a Tailscale VPN, utilizing SOPS for API secret management and Caddy for reverse proxy access.
Engine: Dagster orchestrates custom Polars I/O to extract massive telemetry microbursts and materialize them natively in BigQuery without compute shocks.
Proof of Concept: To demonstrate payload capacity, the engine currently powers a live, AI-augmented B2B multi-channel MarTech reporting suite.
Standard continuous-time risk models fail to capture the structural hardware degradations that precede market crashes. To resolve this, I model the limit order book as an asynchronous distributed network of algorithmic finite state machines (FSMs).
Thesis: Liquidity exhaustion events are not exogenous price shocks, but deterministic state-transition faults within the network's global state scheduler caused by multivariable clock skew.
As part of my continuous R&D operations, I utilize custom React/WebGL engines and local hardware architectures to visualize complex state-transitions and distributed system failures.
I bridge the gap between "it works on my machine" and "it scales to billions of rows." My goal is to make the engineering boring, deterministic, and cost-efficient.
The most expensive mistake in the cloud is a lazy configuration. I reduce network ingest costs by ~90% via VPC Gateway Endpoints.
Compute is expensive; noise is free. I pivot architectures to focus strictly on the telemetry that drives decisions.
I build GitOps workflows that spin up ephemeral preview environments. Production deployments should be deterministic non-events.
Zero Trust isn't a buzzword. I architect private-by-default networks where data never touches the public internet.
Whether you need a custom bare-metal data engine, sovereign analytics architecture for your startup, or are inquiring about research licensing. The Lab is open.
