I build systems from first principles — if I use something, I usually end up rebuilding it from scratch to understand it. CPUs, emulators, GPTs, mesh protocols.
Currently: AI Engineer @ ORF (RAG agents in production) · Software Engineering @ TU Wien
ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
─────────────────────────────────────────────
Stack depth ............ silicon → cloud
Lowest level shipped ... SKY130 ASIC tape-out
Highest level shipped .. RAG agents in prod
Routing decision ....... ~15 µs (custom mesh protocol)
Operating location ..... Vienna, AT
| Ref | Project | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| M1 | Meshara / Synapse | Dual-band mesh network — LoRa control plane + Wi-Fi HaLow data plane on ESP32-S3, custom geographic routing |
| M2 | Humanoid teleop robot | Tendon-driven hands, stereo vision, Quest 3 teleoperation, MoE action-tokenization for behavioral cloning |
| M3 | Custom CPU → ASIC | 8-bit RISC CPU from scratch, taped out on SKY130 via TinyTapeout |
| M7 | From-scratch builds in C | NES emulator, CHIP-8, mini GPT, neural net — no libraries, no magic |
