I’m Hunter. I’m Head of Security Engineering at NMC², where I make sure the infrastructure of the future doesn’t get owned by the attackers of the present.

I’ve been doing this long enough to remember when “let’s just throw more servers at it” was a valid strategy. I don’t do that anymore. Now I write Rust. I write Go. I write Python. I write PHP when the project is old enough that rewriting it would be an act of war.

I lead the people who keep the systems hardened, the secrets secret, and the incident channel quiet.

I also write things that have nothing to do with work:

  • EatingTheDead.ai: An AI-generated album about outages, vendor pain, and the poetry of professional suffering. Because therapy is expensive.
  • Errors-as-a-Service: Chaos engineering for people who can’t afford real chaos. Guaranteed unreliability at scale.
