About

I'm Augustin — engineer, operator and tinkerer. By day I work on cloud architecture and DevOps; by night I run a three-node Kubernetes homelab and automate more of my life than is strictly reasonable.

My first real project was icue-ambilight back in 2019 — a small tool that turned Corsair keyboards into ambient screen lighting. It got 114 stars and roughly 100k downloads, and taught me that shipping small useful things in public beats polishing in private. This blog is the same idea, applied to writing.

Three threads run through everything here:

• Homelab & k8s ops — the anchor: GitOps, storage, networking, postmortems.
• AI-augmented engineering — using Claude and friends to multiply output.
• Experiments — gear, side projects, life quests; not only tech.
