Building Home Infrastructure

Tertom is an evolving smart-infrastructure platform, combining secure networking, home automation, embedded devices, artificial intelligence and self-hosted services.

Cybersecurity Infrastructure Automation Embedded systems

A practical environment for learning, building and experimentation.

Tertom brings independently developed services and devices into one controlled environment. It is both a working smart-home platform and a continuously expanding technical portfolio.

01 / Infrastructure

Self-hosted foundations

Containerised services running on Raspberry Pi infrastructure, with persistent storage, remote administration and secure public access.

02 / Automation

Systems that work together

MQTT messaging, Home Assistant integrations, n8n workflows and purpose-built bots connect physical devices with software services.

03 / Security

Designed with control in mind

Network isolation, controlled exposure, access management and documented interfaces support a security-conscious approach to development.

Curious, practical and driven to understand the whole system.

I am developing hands-on capability across networking, cybersecurity, Linux infrastructure, automation and embedded electronics. I learn by building complete systems, diagnosing problems and documenting repeatable solutions.
