01 // SELECTED WORK

Things I've built

two favourites, built end to end. more experiments in the lab ↓

RomkaSLM training dashboard: live loss curve falling from 7.6 to 6.9 while the model trains on CPU at 1,167 tokens per second. real run, real loss ↘
AI · built from scratch

RomkaSLM

A GPT-style language model I wrote and trained from zero: my own tokenizer, transformer, training loop and chat app. No pretrained weights, no API calls.

  • 11.2M parameters
  • byte-level BPE tokenizer, from scratch
  • trains & runs fully offline

04 // ABOUT ME

Behind the Terminal

about_me.md

Hey, I'm Romka

I'm a software developer who likes the parts people usually hide behind dashboards: backend systems, game-server infrastructure, and modern web apps.

I turn messy ideas into stable, fast infrastructure and products that feel intentional. When I'm not shipping code, I'm usually testing a new tool, breaking a side project, or figuring out how to make the next version less boring.

I like the boring hard parts ↗ // build → break → fix → ship
