I have significant experience in development of various things, from operating systems to game engines to higher-level apps designed to make products accessible to individuals with disabilities. I've always been stronger on the back-end side of things, system administration/IT/the lower-level parts of the stack, that sort of thing, and have less experience when it comes to UX or front-end development. The vast majority of my experience comes from either my degree or me being self-taught, so I'd like to gain a lot more professional experience than I currently have. Right now I'm an OSS contributor to several projects:

* I'm the lead developer of UAAccess, which makes the Apollo line of audio interfaces from Universal Audio accessible to individuals with disabilities; that's written in Python.

* I'm a major contributor to the Non-Visual Gaming Toolkit (NVGT), and have implemented all kinds of things from basic anti-cheat protections to assisting with the development of our new audio subsystem.

* I've also written an implementation of the Noise protocol framework in C++20, mainly because I couldn't find one that met the requirements I was looking for.

I also self-host my own infrastructure, including the server where I host my resume (which runs NixOS).
