        <h4>Live-streaming Platform</h4>
        <p>
          The objective of this project was to create a complete pipeline for live video streaming, all the way from the physical cameras in the classroom to the software used by the alumni. A few interested points covered by the project:
          <ul>
            <li>
              Embedded linux systems for the video cameras (raspberry pi), audio mixer and slide system
            </li>
            <li>
              Live audio mixing of remote and local speakers
            </li>
            <li>
              Time syncing across video sources to prevent frame drift, using PTP
            </li>
            <li>
              Slide software that allows presenter to draw on slides and alumni to ask questions to the presenter

        <h4>Online training platform</h4>
        <p>The objective of this project was to create a ‘forum’-like website to post the videos with the corresponding text material, allowing the students to communicate with each other.</p>

        <p>
          In this project I designed and implemented a system that allowed hundreds of users to access thousands of long-form videos on demand, deployed on a physical cluster in a colocation with high availability and a smart caching system designed to keep 'hot' items in an SSD cache, while a massive store was on tier-3 disks.
          The project included:
          <ul>
            <li>
              Distributed transcoding of the content to a multitude of formats supported by the customer's devices.
            </li>
            <li>
              Web-ui for the administrator to handle users, API keys and content metadata
            </li>

        <p>
          The main purpose of this project was the automatization of data scraping from multiple news sources.
        </p>
        <p>
          The data is gathered by polling the sources in a parallelized manner every set amount of time, validated against a set of keywords (with associated per-source weights) and stored in a database.
        </p>
        <p>
          The sources and keywords can be managed by the users via a web interface; they also decide which matching articles are not useful and tag them as such, every month the weights and keywords get reevaluated based on ‘useless’ articles.
        </p>
        <p>
          We also have a dashboard displaying metrics, keywords, per-source matches and per-keyword matches.

          Multi-language interpreter to extract embedded SQL queries
        </h4>
        <p>
          We had a lot of old applications that had embedded SQL queries and the company had to migrate from Oracle 8 to Oracle 11. To achieve that, we had to analyze ALL the embedded queries so we created an parser for VB6, VB.NET, C#, ASP.NET and Java.

          </li>
          <li>
            IoT projects:
            <ul>
              <li>Wrote a small IOT framework in MicroPython, which I use for my custom devices</li>
              <li>Used said framework to control my nightlamp with my kindle, measure ambient humidity/temperature, switch TV input sources, etc.</li>
            </ul>
          </li>
        </ul>
        <li>

    <h2 class="experience-title">Lab Experience</h2>
    <div class="lab-experience">
      <p>
        Along with my normal projects I maintain a 'lab' to both host my projects and learn about new or interesting tech. Some items of note in the lab:
        <ul>
          <li>
            ARM Cluster: load-balancing LXC cluster on multiple physical ARM single-board-computers of (slightly) different architectures (armv6, AArch64) with live container migration using CRIU
          </li>
          <li>
            Jenkins for automated tests and tricky builds (one of the projects is Android-Windows-Linux)
          </li>
          <li>
            My physical router is fully deployed from the lab with ansible.
          </li>
          <li>
            All containers and VMs are fully deployed with ansible
          </li>
          <li>
            Backup system (automated ping for offline backups, daily delta and weekly snapshots uploaded to different zones, via different mechanisms)
          </li>
        </ul>
      </p>
      <p>
        All of this is monitored with generic tools (telegraf, influx, grafana, email) and also hosts some generic tooling for itself (squid, apt-cacher, git, backups)
