/* Full-Stack Software Developer */

> Synopsis

Co-founder of Oddity.ai and polyglot software developer. My main interests are high performance software such as deep learning inference systems, video processing, and systems programming. My favorite programming languages are Rust and Zig, but I also work with C, C++, C# and web stuff if I have to. I used to be self-employed and built webshops, virtual reality and logistics platforms.

> Oddity.ai

Oddity.ai is the only commercial solution for actual real-time violence detection on CCTV cameras. Unlike other solutions, it actually works and has a false positive rate of less than 0.1 per camera per day. It is deployed in multiple city centers, transporation hubs, prisons, and more places where there is a risk of violence.

> Open Source

I am the author of video-rs, a somewhat popular Rust video library on top of ffmpeg. Take a look at rave too. It is my dream that someday most of the video stack can be written in pure Rust (it will take a while). I also work on async-cuda and async-tensorrt. Not sure yet if wrapping the CUDA API in a layer of async is a smart idea, but it works!

> Skills

My primary programming languages are Rust, C#, C, C++, Zig and Python. I also work with JavaScript, TypeScript and SQL. I have experience with all three big cloud-platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP). My favorite technologies are Linux, PyTorch, CUDA, NixOS and ffmpeg. I'm a terminal nerd and use NixOS with Sway and slowly replacing everything with CLI's and TUI's.
