Ascia Technologies, LLC

Ascia (ASH-ah) - Latin for axe. A tool for both building and defense.

Through Ascia Technologies, I offer consulting and contract work focused on (but not limited to):

  • DevOps and Infrastructure: CI/CD, observability, automation, containers, cloud deployments.
  • Custom Code: Backend development, APIs, scripts, serverless functions.
  • Security Engineering: Vulnerability assessments, binary and static analysis, penetration testing, physical audits.
  • Systems and Network Engineering: Linux/BSD servers, virtual machines, VPNs, routing, firewalls, backups.

I’ve worked in a wide array of industries across private and public sectors, both as a full-time engineer and as a contractor. I’m comfortable jumping into messy systems or code and helping teams get things running smoothly.
