Automation
background.

Before writing software I spent years building control systems for industrial machines — PLCs, SCADA, Modbus, OPC UA. Production environments where downtime has a real cost — that shapes how you write software.

Now I build backends with Ruby on Rails. I'm learning Rust for the same reason I once chose CODESYS: because correctness matters.
