Running OrBit on NixOS for My Polestar 2 (Unofficial)
Why I built a small Nix+Wine wrapper for OrBit, what it does, and where to find the scripts.
Current Status
I'm currently an SDE II at Amazon, working on catalog indexing for third-party seller listings and related reliability/performance work in distributed search systems.
Previously, I built containerized class tooling at USC CS104 and interned at Tesla, Amazon, and Oracle. This page is my current status board for what I'm shipping, documenting, and exploring.
Now
- Building and scaling distributed search indexing workflows.
- Contributing upstream to open-source tools I actively depend on.
- Writing operational notes on reliability, migration, and latency tradeoffs.
- Experimenting with lightweight local toolchains and containerized workflows.
