I build systems you own.
I'm a DevOps and platform engineer near Iași, Romania. For ten years I've kept a large research platform running while it changed underneath its users. At home I built a sovereign lab on one machine: local AI, a research library that can prove every file, and a live threat-intelligence platform. From that library I write books.
Figures refresh from the live system every 30 minutes.
Four crafts, one machine.
DevOps & platform
Ten years on a research-intelligence platform built from many interdependent parts: deployments, legacy-to-cloud migrations, Kubernetes and Amazon EKS, and access management across more than 30 AWS accounts. My specialty is the overview: knowing what a change will break three teams away.
Sovereign AI
Local language models behind one router, and an agent that plans, works through tools and checks its own answers. No cloud bill, no data leaving the room.
Meet lsn-agent-v3 →Security & threat intelligence
Honeypots, behavioural detection, blocking at the edge and verdicts shared with a community of defenders, turned into public, signed dossiers.
See the defense →Knowledge systems
A private research library with full-text and semantic search, OCR, study guides and a provenance ledger, so every file can be verified.

Every layer learned by running it in production.
- 2005–2010Mathematics and computer science, then a master's in modelling and simulation in physics, at Alexandru Ioan Cuza University in Iași.
- 2011–2016System administration, then Linux and VoIP for large multi-client call centers: telephony, routers and switches, mail, databases, data-center hardware, 24/7 operations.
- 2016–todayDevOps engineer on a research-intelligence platform, through three eras: containers, Kubernetes and EKS, and now AI and agentic infrastructure.
- NowA sovereign lab on one machine, public threat intelligence, and books written from my own library.
Written from the library.
