Founder, CTO, and builder of systems.

I’m Peter. I like automations, truth, and building things that actually work. I’m curious about how to make systems beautiful — not just visually, but structurally. Systems that are clear, resilient, and scale without becoming fragile.

What I Do

I build and scale systems from 0 to 1. Most of my work lives in technology and operations. I enjoy taking messy realities — processes, data, teams, constraints — and turning them into something understandable and usable. My strongest areas are:

  • technology and architecture
  • automation and operations
  • structuring systems so they hold over time

I’m less excited about sales. I’m very excited about making the machine behind it all run well.

How I Think About Systems

I learn by building. Every day. I’m an architect type. I care about the big picture — how parts interact, where complexity hides, and where things will break later if you’re not careful now. At the same time, I enjoy going deep into details when they matter. Not for perfection’s sake, but because small decisions compound. Good systems feel simple on the surface because someone did the hard thinking underneath.

How I'm Most Useful

I do my best work when I'm trusted with freedom.

I'm strongest when working on early or complex systems, where structure still needs to be discovered and decisions have long-term consequences. I like having space to think, design, and iterate — and I take responsibility for the outcome.

My core strengths are:

  • system and software architecture
  • automation and operational design
  • turning complexity into something teams can work with

I'm less effective in environments that rely on tight control or predefined scripts. I work best with people who value clarity, ownership, and honest trade-offs.

Experience & Context

As CTO and co-founder, I've had exposure across almost every part of a company:

  • product
  • engineering
  • data
  • operations
  • finance planning
  • compliance realities

That perspective shaped how I think about technology in real organizations — not in isolation, but under real constraints.

A lot of my recent work has focused on:

  • AI in enterprise contexts
  • compliance and data implications
  • architecture choices that hold at scale

I've spoken about these topics at conferences and keynotes, including sharing hands-on experience around Oracle Database and enterprise architecture decisions.

I've also collaborated with Oracle on videos discussing real-world architectural impact and trade-offs.

Speaking & Sharing

I enjoy sharing what I learn — especially when I truly own the topic.

That can be:

  • AI and compliance in enterprises
  • database and architecture decisions
  • scaling systems responsibly
  • what breaks when systems grow too fast

I don't aim to motivate. I aim to explain.

Most of my talks are practical, reflective, and grounded in things I've built or seen fail.

Personal Projects

Experiences that shaped perspective

These experiences shaped how I think about systems, value, performance, and responsibility. They're not credentials or achievements—they're contexts that changed what I pay attention to and how I approach problems.

Craft: Baking

I also bake.

Not as a contrast to technology, but as another way of learning about systems. Baking teaches patience, precision, timing, and feedback. You don't skip steps. You can't rush outcomes.

It's a reminder that good results come from respecting process — whether you're working with dough or distributed systems.

What I'm Curious About Next

I'm interested in:

  • small, focused software products
  • automation that genuinely reduces effort
  • AI embedded into workflows, not bolted on
  • building systems that scale without losing clarity

I care less about trends and more about things that still make sense a year later.

Crafting a design system for a multiplanetary future

Most companies try to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to visual design, but for Planetaria we needed to create a brand that would still inspire us 100 years from now when humanity has spread across our entire solar system.

Introducing Animaginary: High performance web animations

When you’re building a website for a company as ambitious as Planetaria, you need to make an impression. I wanted people to visit our website and see animations that looked more realistic than reality itself.

Rewriting the cosmOS kernel in Rust

When we released the first version of cosmOS last year, it was written in Go. Go is a wonderful programming language, but it’s been a while since I’ve seen an article on the front page of Hacker News about rewriting some important tool in Go and I see articles on there about rewriting things in Rust every single week.

Designing intelligence as part of our world

As a founder and builder, I focus on creating intelligent systems that integrate seamlessly with human experience.

My work centers on three pillars: Systems that are robust and well-designed, Intelligence that enhances human capability, and Responsibility that ensures technology serves humanity ethically.

Currently working independently, I'm exploring how we can build AI systems that feel natural, intuitive, and fundamentally aligned with human values and needs.

I knew that to get it right I was going to have to replicate the viewing conditions of someone from the future, so I grabbed my space helmet from the closet, created a new Figma document, and got to work.

Sermone fata

Lorem markdownum, bracchia in redibam! Terque unda puppi nec, linguae posterior in utraque respicere candidus Mimasque formae; quae conantem cervice. Parcite variatus, redolentia adeunt. Tyrioque dies, naufraga sua adit partibus celanda torquere temptata, erit maneat et ramos, iam ait dominari potitus! Tibi litora matremque fumantia condi radicibus opusque.

Deus feram verumque, fecit, ira tamen, terras per alienae victum. Mutantur levitate quas ubi arcum ripas oculos abest. Adest commissaque victae in gemitus nectareis ire diva dotibus ora, et findi huic invenit; fatis? Fractaque dare superinposita nimiumque simulatoremque sanguine, at voce aestibus diu! Quid veterum hausit tu nil utinam paternos ima, commentaque.
