I'm an Automation Engineering student at Metropolia UAS, currently writing my thesis on:
Implementation of an Open-Source Automation System
Using Raspberry Pi 4, Controllino MEGA, MQTT, Node-RED, and Industrial 5.0 principles.
I spend a lot of time building local and self-hosted projects, experimenting with Dockerized services, container networking, and Linux-first workflows across servers and embedded devices.
🐍 Python (primary) • 🦀 Rust (learning/side projects) • Bash • SQL
🐳 Docker & Docker Compose • 🐧 Linux (Arch (btw)/Ubuntu servers) • NGINX reverse proxy
📡 MQTT • Redis • PostgreSQL • Node-RED • WireGuard
Raspberry Pi • Controllino MEGA • Modbus RTU/TCP • MQTT-based telemetry
- Finishing my thesis
- Containerized tooling for home-lab / edge compute environments
- Self-hosted automation, dashboards & monitoring
- Improving Linux workflows and reliability (because breaking your system is part of the fun 😄)
- Distributed automation
- Self-hosting, homelabs, and digital minimalism (terminal first)
- Low-level Linux tinkering, dotfiles, and weird debugging adventures
