An engineer who designs, builds and ships his own products.
I design, build and maintain a small portfolio of mobile and web products under the Onyx Systems name — end to end, from the first line of code to the support inbox. No hand-offs, no hidden team: one person, the whole stack.
Sift and Orbit, among the products here, share the same approach: your data lives on your device by default, there's no account to create, and nothing is sent anywhere unless you explicitly ask for it. Privacy isn't a feature I bolt on later — it's a constraint I design around from day one.
I'm the one who answers the support message for a feature I shipped. There's no hand-off to someone else down the line — I maintain everything here myself.
No third-party trackers, no ad SDKs, data kept on-device wherever the product allows it. It shapes the architecture, not just the marketing page.
I'd rather ship a handful of considered releases a year than forty forgettable ones. Every product here is still actively maintained.
