Liona-Orph

Platform & AI Infrastructure Engineer building reliable distributed systems, developer infrastructure, and AI platforms in Go, Rust, Python, and TypeScript.

I focus on the parts of software that have to remain understandable when systems fail: durable execution, data integrity, privacy boundaries, measurable search, and operational control planes.

Selected systems

Sluice — LLM infrastructure

An OpenAI-compatible gateway for controlling cost, privacy, and provider failure. Its evidence includes reversible PII redaction, semantic caching, budget policy, provider failover, and audit logs that can be replayed.

Skald — durable execution

A workflow engine that lets ordinary Go functions survive crashes, deploys, and long waits. Append-only histories, deterministic replay, recovery simulations, timers, workers, and operational tooling make its guarantees inspectable.

Proxima — vector search

A vector search engine built from first principles in Rust, including HNSW, IVF-PQ, quantization, filtered search, and write-ahead-log recovery. Recall is measured against exact search rather than treated as a marketing claim.

Basalt — analytical storage

Readable columnar database components in Rust: arrays, compression codecs, segment storage, a SQL parser, binding, and logical planning. Its README states the unfinished executor and optimizer explicitly so implemented scope is clear.

Nabla — machine-learning foundations

A compact deep-learning framework built on NumPy with reverse-mode autodiff, layers, optimizers, and training loops. Every differentiable operation is checked against numerical gradients, including broadcast reduction and shape contracts.

Meridian Control Plane — governed operations

A TypeScript control plane combining a React console, multi-tenant API, durable worker, approval gates, audit events, and outbox-shaped delivery. It demonstrates how backend guarantees and an operational interface fit together.

Technical focus

Area What I build Primary tools
Distributed systems Durable workflows, retries, idempotency, recovery Go, PostgreSQL, SQLite
AI infrastructure Model gateways, privacy controls, search, evaluation Go, Rust, Python
Data systems Storage formats, indexing, planning, quality gates Rust, Python, SQL
Product infrastructure Multi-tenant APIs, workers, audit trails, consoles TypeScript, Fastify, React

How I build

  • Start with explicit invariants, failure modes, and honest scope boundaries.
  • Keep critical mechanisms observable through tests, benchmarks, audit events, deterministic fixtures, or replayable histories.
  • Prefer small dependency surfaces when implementing a subsystem is the point; use established libraries when the product problem is elsewhere.
  • Treat documentation, security policy, reproducible setup, and CI as part of the system rather than finishing touches.
Resumen en español

Soy ingeniero de plataformas e infraestructura para IA. Construyo sistemas distribuidos, motores y herramientas que hacen explícitas la durabilidad, la privacidad, la integridad de datos y la operación bajo fallos. Mi trabajo combina Go, Rust, Python y TypeScript, con pruebas reproducibles, documentación técnica y límites honestos.
