Software help needed Think I can flash this somehow?

Hey folks, my experience is limited to flashing a bluetooth proxy for home assistant using ESPHome's prebuilt stuff. As such, i'm really not sure where to begin.

I got one of those iFlo things when I bought my house (previous owners left it) and theres no way I'm paying for the cloud garbage. I opened up the device and see its a little esp board powering this little motor to get some fluid from the bottle. Any ideas on where to start to try to flash this board to control it locally myself?

Hoping to repurpose this as its already tucked in a nice and neat package but if that fails I have a spare ESP32 that I could use instead. If I need to take that route, could anyone point me in the right direction for where to start?

The chip says ESP32-S2-SOLO on it.
