Owned the software, API, and database architecture end-to-end, driving the project to completion with minimal oversight. Designed microservice-oriented services and data models using Go (Golang) and PostgreSQL, with Flutter for a SaaS platform. Built a custom backend framework and shared libraries across multiple microservices using Go-Gin as the API foundation. Implemented bidirectional mobile/desktop sync with offline support, ensuring reliability with fragmented, high-value data. Set up CI/CD using DroneCI and used NSQ for asynchronous microservice communication. Advised on cloud infrastructure using Docker, Nginx, Google Cloud, and serverless technologies. Built AI applications using open-source LLM tooling (llama.cpp, Ollama) plus computer vision models (CLIP, YOLO). Created Go/Bash terminal tools to improve productivity and iterate rapidly on CI/CD and system improvements.

Owned end-to-end software, API, and database architecture. Designed services and data models using a microservice approach with Go (Golang), PostgreSQL, and Flutter for a SaaS platform. Built a core backend framework and custom libraries used across multiple microservices with Go-Gin as the API foundation. Designed and implemented bidirectional sync between mobile and desktop apps with offline support to maintain reliable operation over fragmented, high-value data. Implemented CI/CD using DroneCI and asynchronous workflows using NSQ for microservice communication. Advised on cloud environments and infrastructure using Docker, Nginx, Google Cloud, and serverless technologies. Built AI applications using open-source LLMs (llama.cpp, Ollama), CLIP, and YOLO. Created Go and Bash terminal tools to improve productivity and iterate quickly on CI/CD improvements.

Advised on and helped design software and database architecture using strong system design and debugging fundamentals. Built backend systems and plugins from scratch, including APIs primarily with PHP and WordPress. Designed and implemented a scalable, secure search system using Meilisearch, Nginx, and Docker. Improved observability and debugging with Grafana and Loki, proactively surfacing and resolving issues. Optimized backend and frontend performance to reduce server/cloud infrastructure cost. Wrote internal Bash tools to mass-optimize thousands of images, testing ideas and measuring results to iterate quickly.
