ESP32, firmware, SDR, 3D Models, beautifully overcomplicated lab toys
I’m Jim — a hardware hacker, embedded security nerd, ham radio operator, and RF/IoT breaker-builder.
I live where firmware, signals, and weird boards collide: ESP32/STM/CYD/Embedded Linux experiments, SDR, NFC/RFID, UART/I2C poking, packet captures, lasers, 3D printing, probes, and the occasional “why is this packet doing that?” rabbit hole.
By day I lead cybersecurity architecture and operations. After hours, I turn small devices into learning platforms, test rigs, security demos, and beautifully overcomplicated lab toys.
I like practical security: trace the wire, read the firmware, map the radio, understand the protocol, then build something useful from the evidence.
If you enjoy hardware hacking, maker cybersecurity, ESP32 projects, RF recon, OT/IoT security, AI-assisted reverse engineering, or strange little devices that deserve to be understood, you’re in the right place.
Support here helps fund boards, sensors, radios, adapters, probes, lab gear, documentation time, and the occasional magic smoke replacement part.
