12 Hello! I'm An Hyukjin, operating under the alias SQZER. I am a Software &
13 Security Engineer and Founder based in South Korea.
14
15 I love programming in languages like C++, Rust, and Python. I like being called
16 'SQZER' because I enjoy squeezing and breaking things down to the bitter end.
17 Feel free to just call me Squeezer!

19 ## Software & Security Engineer
20
21 I enjoy having control over the entire lifecycle of a service—from hardware and
22 systems to DevSecOps, planning, and development. Because of this, in the offline
23 world, I have worked in various roles, including Enterprise Infrastructure
24 Engineer, SysOps Engineer, Full-Stack Developer, and Security Engineer.
25 Currently, I operate as a Software Engineer within the broader domain of
26 Security.
27
28 Having started my career as a developer, my primary languages are C++, Rust, and
29 Python. I am also active as an open-source developer, building various tools
30 required for security testing. I love contributing to other security projects
31 and tools as well. If you are curious about my work, please check out the
32 [Projects](@/projects/_index.md) page or my
33 [GitHub](https://github.com/sqzer-x).
34
35 Currently, I have a strong interest in OPSEC and Zero Trust, and I am
36 continuously dedicating my research and focus to these areas.

38 ## Founder
39
40 In my personal time, I dedicate myself to being a Founder. I continuously review
41 my own services, launch new ones, and pour all my skills and capabilities as a
42 solo entrepreneur (solopreneur) into exploring new business models, managing
43 legal responsibilities, and executing marketing strategies.
44
45 ## Gear and Tools

47 I am also very interested in hardware. I built my early homelab environment
48 using a Dell PowerEdge R650 Server, and I am currently using a Lenovo
