Hi there 👋

I'm Clayton Auld. By day, I work in telecommunications as a Network Capacity Forecasting Engineer (prior role was as a Radio Frequency (RF) Engineer). When I'm not at $DAYJOB, I dabble in open source home automation systems, Linux system administration, and network infrastructure. I manage several cloud VPSs using projects like Pi-Hole, secure DNS (DNS-over-TLS), and other small things. I also run my own UnRAID server out of my closet for cloud storage and home automation.

I am an open source software and hardware enthusiast, who loves to play with small embedded systems (think ESP32, STM32, Arduino, etc) for home automation. I believe access to free and open source software is crucial for our society and for the success of modern business and infrastructure.

Current favorite projects include:

  • SkiffOS: Buildroot-based lightweight Linux system for computers and embedded systems. It utilizes Docker containers to decouple the Linux/GNU kernel and BSP from userspace.
  • Home Assistant: Home Automation system on steroids, built to integrate and make dissimilar systems communicate well.
  • ESPHome: A system to control your ESP8266/ESP32 by simple yet powerful configuration files and control them remotely through Home Automation systems.
  • Home Assistant HACS: Home Assistant Community Store

I am also an avid user of Linux/GNU systems and love the WSL integration into Windows 10.

Most of my GitHub work centers around home automation, Linux administration, and embedded systems. I have contributed to SkiffOS in the form of bug reports and build testing, Home Assistant HACS, and submitted bug fixes on oh-my-fish budspencer theme for the fish shell.
