Jeremiah
Kroesche

Systems-oriented developer & infrastructure engineer. Founder of Halfservers LLC.

Background

I came up through the hardware — pulling cables, configuring BIOS, troubleshooting drives at odd hours. That instinct to understand the full stack, from bare metal to browser, never left. Today it means building web applications with Astro and React while running the Proxmox infrastructure they live on.

I founded Halfservers LLC to formalize what I was already doing: designing and managing infrastructure for clients who needed someone who could think across layers. Not just "cloud" or just "code" — the whole picture.

My work is detail-oriented and systems-first. I build things that are simple, reliable, and well-understood — not just clever. Whether it's a custom web platform, a CI/CD pipeline, or a network rollout, I bring the same mindset: get it right, document it, make it last.

Cloudflare Workers & Edge Computing

D1, R2, durable objects — compute at the edge.

What I'm Building Toward

Current Focus

  • Completing the Network Management & Cybersecurity diploma (2026)
  • Building h4lf.dev on Cloudflare's edge compute platform (Pages, Workers)
  • Developing claude-code++ — an enterprise wrapper for the Claude Code CLI
  • Growing Halfservers LLC client base and service offerings

Certification Roadmap

  • CompTIA A+, Linux+, and Server+ — targeted 2026
  • Cisco CCNA — next major networking milestone

Long-Term Vision

  • Bring Project Flar3 from concept to prototype — hybrid analog/digital compute platform
  • Deepen hands-on AWS into production ECS and Lambda workloads
  • Expand Halfservers LLC into full-service infrastructure consulting
  • Contributing to the open source tools I rely on
  • Building a homelab that's genuinely production-grade
  • Documenting everything — the blog is part of that
