TLS Client Hello activity tracking
A model using the TLS Client Hello server name to infer user activity.
01 / Technical knowledge
From problem to dependable system.
Seven-plus years of hands-on experience across independent projects, client work, and security research have built that range—letting me choose tools for the problem in front of me, rather than force it into a familiar stack.
From interpreted and compiled languages to containers and data stores, and creating RESTful APIs, I am comfortable working across the technical decisions that shape a product.
What this looks like in practice
I can take ownership of the parts that connect a product: a clear interface, a well-considered API, reliable data handling, and the infrastructure that keeps it available. The result is software that is easier to extend, operate, and trust.
