I build IAM primitives, Rust backends and distributed architectures for systems that need to stay readable, operable and open.
Rust
services, CLI, APIs
IAM
Keycloak, OIDC
K8s
OPA, AuthZen, MCP
Projects
FerrisKey and FerrisLabs are the places where I turn architecture decisions into concrete software.
An open source IAM platform built in Rust to explore identity, policy and developer-first operations.
A FerrisLabs project focused on realtime collaboration foundations, protocol design and reliable services.
A FerrisLabs product for messaging and newsletter workflows with clean delivery and platform boundaries.
I care about public roadmaps, readable contribution paths, pragmatic governance and long-term maintainability.

Expertise
I focus on the parts of a system where product design, security constraints and operational reality meet.
APIs, services and infrastructure code with strong ownership of correctness, ergonomics and operational behaviour.
OIDC, Keycloak, FerrisKey, policy models, delegated authorization and secure product boundaries.
Platform primitives for deployment, policy enforcement, AI tool access and service-to-service governance.
Kafka, Saga Pattern, event flows, consistency tradeoffs and systems that stay explainable under failure.
Data modelling, query paths and persistence choices for identity, messaging and high-throughput services.
