miksrv/README.md

Principal Engineer / Tech Lead, 21+ years building and running production systems - architecture, backend, frontend, infrastructure, sometimes hardware too. Led engineering teams of 5-15 across government, media, and enterprise software.


About Me

  • Started writing code at 15
  • Comfortable across the stack - from firmware to backend to React
  • Run a remote robotic observatory that operates unattended every clear night (see below)
  • Outside of code: astrophotography, hiking with family

Home Observatory

I run a remote robotic observatory that captures, processes, and publishes deep-sky images automatically every clear night, without manual intervention.
