Brian Durham

I build quiet background tools that turn messy input into clean and structured output. This has been my focus since the 4 KB TRS 80 days.

Most of my work has centered on automation, data transformation, and small utilities that make systems easier to operate and understand. I like tools that run unattended and quietly do their job.

Technical arc

  • Z80 and 6502 work → K&R C → FoxPro → Perl → modern Python pipelines
  • Former: PDX and NHIN pharmacy systems, early web CGI, large scale Perl automation
  • Current: Python and SQL data center automation at Core Mark
  • Side projects: Whisper and ffmpeg pipelines, Grav CMS tooling, Flask apps, retro work with z88dk

Areas of interest

  • Python and Bash scripting
  • Linux system administration
  • Automation workflows (cron, rsync, lightweight orchestration)
  • Data cleanup and transformation
  • Grav CMS utilities
  • Distributed computing (Spacious at Home)
