I'm ArikSquad, a full-stack developer from Finland ๐ซ๐ฎ with a strong interest in systems, cybersecurity and server development. My strongest languages are Java, Python and C++ but I also like to work with TypeScript and Rust, or whatever language best fits the task. I enjoy working close to the underlying systems, understanding how things communicate and solving problems that cover any section of software development.
- Software development in general: backend systems, libraries and tooling.
- Networking & infrastructure inside self-hosted services, proxies, DNS, routing and server administration.
- Operating and troubleshooting Minecraft server infrastructure and services used by a large numbers of users.
- Cybersecurity as in vulnerability research and bug-bounty work, including responsibly disclosed vulnerabilities including PoCs and rewarded submissions.
- I always look to test out new technologies and learn about interesting things such as new languages and tools.
Besides just doing basic projects I like to participate in competitive programming contests, contribute to various different OSS projects and continue learning about math and physics.
You can find some projects I've worked on pinned below. While I'm keen on open-source, some of my bigger projects are unfortunately closed-source for various reasons.
