Automation Engineer

Summary

A solo operator can't manually manage 256 services, 1,603 repos, and 7 nodes. Built 212 CLI tools and 52 scheduled automations that turn a one-person operation into a self-sustaining system.


Experience

BlackRoad OS | Founder & Automation Engineer | 2025Present

The Philosophy: If You Did It Twice, Automate It

  • 212 CLI tools (121 MB) in ~/bin — every deployment, probe, audit, sync, and report is a single command
  • 91 shell scripts for fleet management. Custom brand compliance auditing. Mass update tooling across all 99 sites
  • GitHub-to-Gitea relay syncs 207 repos every 30 minutes — cross-platform Git without manual intervention

The Schedule: 52 Tasks Running Without You

  • 17 Mac cron jobs + 35 fleet systemd timers = 52 automated tasks running daily, hourly, and every 5 minutes
  • Daily KPI collection at 6 AM: 10 collectors pull from GitHub API, fleet SSH, Cloudflare CLI, local Mac — aggregated into daily report
  • Self-healing autonomy: heartbeat every 60s, heal every 5m, power monitor every 5m — fleet maintains itself overnight

The Pipeline: Data That Updates Itself

  • 10 collectors generate snapshots → aggregated into daily JSON → pushed to Cloudflare KV → live resume dashboards update automatically
  • Every number on this page came from an automated collector, not a human typing it. Updated daily. Verified by source

Technical Skills

Bash, Python, cron, systemd timers, GitHub Actions, SSH automation, jq, curl
