A curated portfolio of engineering writeups and project documentation spanning software, electronics, and mechanical systems.

A small window into my work — the rest remains confidential or not publicly documented.

Engineering Domains

CAN bus diagnostics, EEPROM work, locksmithing, retrofits, harness fabrication, module repair, and full mechanical rebuilds.

Microsoldering and board rework, microcontroller & sensor integration, power electronics, and hardware-in-the-loop debugging.

Web apps, system architecture, data pipelines, developer tooling, automation workflows, and API integrations.

Schematics, wiring diagrams, pinouts, quick-reference tables, and field-tested documentation from ongoing projects.

CAD modeling, 3D printing, custom tooling, fixture design, machining, and assemblies.

Cross-disciplinary experiments, exploratory builds, and one-off investigations.

Imports daily SmartHub energy usage into InfluxDB and Home Assistant, enabling simple monitoring via MQTT and Node-RED.

Push-button start and keyless entry retrofit with full OEM integration.

A lightweight Electron wrapper for ChatGPT, tailored for Intel Macs that can't run the official OpenAI desktop app.
