INFRASTRUCTURE / DEVELOPER TOOLS01
DevPit
A desktop DevOps cockpit built with Tauri. Bringing developer tooling into a dedicated desktop interface, with TypeScript up front and Rust underneath.
DEVOPS MINDSET. SECURITY BY DESIGN.
Build with intent.
Secure by default.
Automate what’s next.
I’m Recai, a software engineering and systems enthusiast connecting backend code, Linux infrastructure, and AI to build practical tools—and understand the systems behind them.

THE CONNECTING THREAD
Linux / Backend / Automation / Security / Artificial intelligence
01 / SELECTED WORK
Less theory.
More working things.
Open-source experiments where software meets systems. Real repositories, real problems, and plenty to learn.
AUTOMATION / DELIVERY02
cicd-labs
A local, Python-based CI/CD pipeline. A hands-on exploration of repeatable workflows and the mechanics behind continuous integration and delivery.
AI / INTELLIGENT TOOLING03
Lumode
A Lumo-powered local coding agent with a rich terminal interface and native tool interception. Exploring how language models can become practical developer tools.
LOW-LEVEL / LINUX SYSTEMS04
S310 CBD replacement
An open-source replacement for Samsung’s modem boot daemon on the Galaxy J7. Working closer to the hardware to understand how embedded systems come to life.
02 / THE PERSON BEHIND THE TERMINAL
Curious by nature.
Systems-minded.
I like knowing what happens after the code runs.
My hands-on experience spans backend development, Linux-based infrastructure, automation, and AI-powered applications. I’m interested in the whole path: from a useful idea to software that is understandable, scalable, and reliable.
DevOps and DevSecOps are the direction I’m building toward. That means strengthening my systems fundamentals, thinking about security early, and designing tools that make development and operations work better together.
AI IS PART OF MY EVERYDAY TOOLKIT
Find me on LinkedIn ↗
I use AI a lot. It’s a regular part of how I learn, develop software, and explore ideas—not just something I build projects around. I’m especially interested in LLM-powered developer tools and intelligent automation, while keeping an emphasis on understanding and reviewing the results.
WHAT I’M DRAWN TO
Infrastructure that makes sense
Linux administration, cloud infrastructure, networking, and reliable software architectures.
Security as a habit
Cybersecurity, systems understanding, and bringing a security-first perspective to development and automation.
Tools that do the heavy lifting
Backend systems, developer tooling, and automation that makes repetitive work more predictable.
AI with a practical purpose
Machine learning, LLM integration, and intelligent applications built around real-world problems.
03 / MILESTONES
Ideas put to the test.
From technical competitions to entrepreneurial challenges: taking projects beyond my own machine.
