Engineer, not just developer.

I'm a graduating Computer Science student at PUP Manila with hands-on experience building full-stack applications from the ground up. My primary focus is on backend architecture — designing relational databases, engineering RESTful APIs, and managing server deployments, with experience in multi-team collaboration using Git.

My background spans both sides of the stack. While I am capable on the frontend with Next.js and Flutter, I thrive when working under the hood with Python and Java to solve complex logic and data problems. I specialize in bridging the gap between advanced AI models and user-facing applications, such as deploying live PyTorch inference pipelines and managing real-time data synchronization. I write code that's meant to be scaled, read, and maintained.

I'm actively looking for my first full-time engineering role where I can contribute to a real product, work alongside experienced engineers, and keep growing.

Specialties

  • Backend and API Engineering

    Designing secure, scalable server-side logic and RESTful APIs. Experience building backend systems with Python (Flask) and Java, and connecting them to robust databases including PostgreSQL, MySQL, and Firebase.

  • Applied Machine Learning

    Bridging the gap between advanced AI models and user-facing apps. Extensive experience engineering real-time AI inference pipelines using PyTorch and Hugging Face Spaces, ensuring seamless API communication and live data synchronization.

  • Full-Stack and Systems Architecture

    Thinking in systems to connect robust backends to dynamic client interfaces. Experience managing state, API consumption, and schema design across Next.js web applications, Flutter mobile apps, and C# environments.

  • DevOps and Deployment

    Taking applications from local development to production. Proficient in Git version control and deploying robust backends, live APIs, and web applications using modern hosting platforms like Render and Hugging Face.
