About this site

Date: October 2025

Welcome! I'm Tomato.

I'm a Software Engineer, and I mostly focus on Distributed Systems, Infrastructure, and Site Reliability Engineering (SRE).

I enjoy documenting what I learn, so I often blog about my findings and notes(I fall into random rabbit holes too often). In my free time, I like to read research papers, working on personal projects from a bucket list that’s now more of a backlog monster. Seriously, I think it’s sentient at this point.

Outside of tech, I'm into anime and enjoy reading whatever random books I can get my hands on. Lately, I've started reading more Chinese web novels to practice my Chinese reading skills, and I’ve also been teaching myself piano...still working on reading sheet music, though! If you ever see a post of me playing piano, that probably means I’ve made some progress.

Anyway, thanks for stopping by hope you enjoy the posts!
