Building useful, maintainable software where systems, people and real-world constraints meet.

I work across software engineering, digital products and automation. My background connects application development with more than a decade of web, e-commerce and growth work — including multi-market operations, marketplaces, analytics and conversion.
Today, I focus on AI-assisted engineering, systems reliability, compatibility and practical automation. I prefer observable progress, real tests and maintainable architecture over impressive-looking demos.
Eden Encore — emulator engineering and compatibility research, with an emphasis on graphics pipelines, system integration, host-side validation and reproducible results. Actively developed; compatibility remains a work in progress.
NiakVIO — a provider platform built around verifiable compatibility, structured diagnosis, repair workflows and native-device checks. Project overview.
TizenTube Cobalt — a community-driven media playback fork, with work on smart TV stability, viewing experience and platform adaptation. Under active development.
NiakGPT — a local-first workspace exploring better continuity, navigation and ergonomics for complex, long-running ChatGPT projects. Project overview.
- Engineering — business applications, web platforms, systems integration, databases and automation.
- Product & growth — led digital marketing and e-commerce across 20+ web properties in four European markets.
- Delivery — connecting architecture and implementation to people, performance, maintenance and measurable outcomes.
Three rules stay visible in almost everything I build:
- Understand the real problem before automating it.
- Prefer evidence over assumptions.
- Design for failure, observation and repair.
The principles behind that
- Make the complex understandable.
- Automate repetition — not responsibility.
- Keep failure states visible instead of manufacturing green checks.
- Use AI to extend judgment, not hide it.
- Let architecture protect iteration rather than impress people.
- Ship → observe → repair → simplify → repeat.
