No decks. Just uptime. I don’t start no sh*t, but I finish it.

85

Your stream crashed again.

Let’s stop pretending this is “part of going live.” It’s a reliability job. And I’m applying for it—publicly—because the evidence is already on camera.

I'm not pitching a deck. I’m pitching for the job.
Not offering advice. Offering to run it.
I want the gig. Not the meeting.

DM “GIG” and I’ll reply like it’s fourth quarter. Hire me or watch it crash again.

Trick Daddy clause

“I don’t start no sh*t, but I finish it.” That’s policy. And yes: we takin’ it to da house — meaning the stream stays up long enough to get there.

Liberty City discipline

Built with that Liberty City discipline — I don’t just patch servers, I own the paint. If it breaks on-air, it’s not a “maybe.” It’s a “fixed.”

The role I want

Streaming Ops. The person who owns ingest, encoder settings, routing, redundancy, monitoring, and the “why is it buffering?” moment. The person who makes chaos look intentional.

> application: public · loud · intentional
> reason: the stream keeps getting embarrassed
> physical_specs: 6'4" · reach to fix top-rack cabling
> current symptoms: dropped frames · reconnect loops · bitrate swings
> root cause: ingest fragility + encoder drift + no “if it fails, it fails over” plan
> fix pack:
  • lock bitrate ladder (stop the rollercoaster)
  • tune encoder preset / keyframes (stability over vibes)
  • primary + backup ingest (failover, not prayers)
  • monitoring + alerting (snitch before it dies)
> outcome: steady · producer-proof · camera stays hot

I’m not applying like everyone else

Most people ask for a meeting. I built a site. This is the meeting. If you’re reading this, you already know the problem. I want to own it.

What you get if you hire me

A stream that doesn’t fold mid-sentence. A producer checklist that’s idiot-proof. A dashboard that tells the truth. And someone who treats uptime like the main character.

The bet

Hire me. The stream gets boring (in the best way): steady, clean, consistent. Don’t hire me? Cool — I’ll still be watching it crash again.

The line in the sand

I want the gig. Not the meeting. Not offering advice. Offering to run it. Hire me or watch it crash again.

This page is loud on purpose. Uptime is louder.
