I am currently studying for my master's degree in software engineering at McGill University. I'm an Apple Alumni (aka former Apple employee XD), and alumni of Shanghai University as well. I worked as a full-time backend engineer (they even gave me the senior title), and I'm interested in exploring, developing and hosting online services for my daily usage.

I'm also an open-source contributor, I have contributed to some famous projects, including open-interpreter, AudioLDM2, and Bert-VITES2. BTW, I support the Free Software Movement by regularly donating ($6/month) to fsf.org to achieve their great goals.

Familiar with Python, Rust, PHP, Java, C/C++ and all other tech stacks to develop and deploy services in containers, on VMs, and with K8S clusters. Have much experience with all major cloud computing service providers, including Apple Cloud Infrastructure, Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Service, and Alibaba Cloud Service. Senior in backend development and dev-ops, however, I don't write frontend pages and UI.

I'm hosting some interesting services on my own server (a Raspberry Pi 5) and domain steve235lab.ca:

• LobeChat: A self-hosted open-source LLM chat bot service with API access to OpenAI GPT and Anthropic Claude models.
• NextCloud: A self-hosted open-source cloud drive.
• Minio: A self-hosted open-source OSS with intercontinental CDN which this page is powered by.
• Magnetico: Where you can search for any resource in the DHT network.

All these services are open to friends, for free. If you want access to the existing services or even want something new, just let me know.
