Introduction

Hey, I’m Eugene β€” a software engineer who spends way too much time making my own life more complicated in the name of learning things properly.

Currently at SAP working on cloud-native stuff (infra, deployments, CI/CD pipelines). Outside of work I’m building a home lab, maintaining this digital garden, and going deep on AI-native tooling. This site is where I document what I’m actually building β€” not polished tutorials, just honest notes from someone figuring it out as they go.

What I work with

  • Cloud & Infrastructure β€” Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, cloud-native deployments
  • AI & Agents β€” Building with Claude, experimenting with AI-native development workflows
  • Home Lab β€” Self-hosted services running on an M5 Mac Mini + NAS setup

This garden

This site runs on Quartz, synced directly from my Obsidian vault. Posts here are a mix of project write-ups, learning notes, and the occasional rabbit hole.

The whole setup β€” from how notes get categorised to how blog posts get published β€” is managed with Claude Code and a bunch of custom skills and hooks. More on that in Claude Setup.

Not everything here is finished. Some notes are seeds, some are trees. Come back and see what’s changed πŸ‘€
