Open-source: Talos — secure Rust licensing (client + server)

I’m wrapping up Talos, an open-source Rust licensing framework that provides a secure “gatekeeper” for software: hardware-bound licensing, encrypted local license storage, activation/validation, and heartbeat-based liveness checks.

What’s included:

async client library + lightweight Axum server

AES-256-GCM encrypted license storage

SHA-256 hardware fingerprinting

SQLite/Postgres support, self-hostable

feature flags for admin API, JWT auth, rate limiting, jobs

Senior Software Engineer & AI Automation

I designed and developed this AI-powered lead automation system as a Senior Software Engineer specializing in AI automation and workflow engineering. The system automatically monitors a lead database and triggers a processing pipeline whenever a new lead appears. It intelligently filters and qualifies leads based on predefined conditions, then uses AI to generate contextual messages and summaries. This automation eliminates manual lead handling, improves response speed, and ensures that only high-quality leads move through the workflow.

After the AI generates the message, the system formats and parses the content before automatically sending notifications to internal teams through communication channels such as Slack and email. The workflow then updates the database with the processed results, keeping all records synchronized. This project demonstrates my ability to build scalable automation systems that integrate databases, AI services, and communication platforms to create efficient, real-time business workflows.
