About

As the owner of Plutus, I don’t just write code - I build systems that solve business problems. Unlike traditional developers, I leverage 10+ years of
operational experience in industrial maintenance to bridge the gap between physical operations and digital efficiency.

I partner with companies to replace manual, inefficient processes with custom software solutions, focusing specifically on manufacturing efficiency,
B2B automation, and internal tooling that directly impacts the bottom line.

How I work: My philosophy is centered on speed and precision. I utilize a modern, high-efficiency tech stack (Laravel, Next.js, AI) to bypass the bloat of
traditional development. By integrating smart automation, I drastically reduce the time from “idea” to “deployment,” delivering enterprise-grade
software in a fraction of the usual time.

What I deliver:
• Operational Clarity: Transforming scattered data and manual tracking into centralized, real-time dashboards that give management clear insight
into business performance.
• Process Automation: Converting manual, repetitive tasks into automated digital workflows that reduce administrative overhead and eliminate
human error.
• Tailored Business Solutions: Building specialized internal tools designed specifically for your unique business logic—filling the gaps that off-the￾shelf software can’t handle.

I combine the reliability of an agency owner with the agility of a specialized contractor. If you need a partner who understands both the code and the
production floor, let’s connect.

𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: To modernize a manufacturing floor dependent on paper trails, I built a lightweight, high-performance web application tailored for rugged industrial environments. Unlike standard office software, this system needed to be touch-friendly, extremely fast, and accessible to workers on the line. I integrated physical hardware (RFID) with cloud AI to create a seamless bridge between machinery and digital tracking, resulting in a 40% increase in reporting accuracy.

𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗗𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀:
• 𝗛𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 (𝗥𝗙𝗜𝗗 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵): Developed a contactless authentication system allowing workers to log in instantly via RFID tags, eliminating keyboard friction and accommodating factory safety gear.
• 𝗔𝗜 𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗹𝗼𝘁: Engineered a custom AI Chatbot (OpenAI API) that digests technical manuals (e.g., Water/Air systems), allowing technicians to troubleshoot machinery issues via natural language directly on the floor.
• 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹-𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗙𝗲𝗲𝗱: Built a Live Data Dashboard using vanilla JavaScript/AJAX for zero-latency updates, giving management an instant pulse on active work orders and production bottlenecks.
• 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲: Implemented a robust background system (Cron jobs & Shell scripts) that automatically generates and emails daily PDF/Word performance reports and handles off-site backups.

• Skills: Native PHP 8 • JavaScript (Vanilla) • MySQL • OpenAI API • RFID Integration • Shell Scripting • FPdf/PhpWord

𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: To enforce strict shift policies without increasing administrative workload, I engineered a specialized Python ETL pipeline that autonomously audits employee attendance. Management previously wasted hours cross-referencing raw door access logs with shift schedules. I automated this entirely: the system ingests raw data streams, detects anomalies (late arrivals, early departures, missing check-ins) using Pandas, and delivers detailed compliance reports to management—eliminating manual oversight entirely.

𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗗𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀:
•𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗜𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Built a robust listener using imap-tools that intercepts raw email logs from access control hardware, extracting attachments and parsing unstructured data automatically.
• 𝗣𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘀 𝗔𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘆𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲: Developed complex data transformation logic with Python Pandas to merge door logs with employee rosters, calculating precise work hours and flagging violations based on custom business rules.
• 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Integrated Jinja2 templating and PDFKit to generate professional, branded PDF reports from analyzed data, which are then securely dispatched to HR via SMTP.
• 𝗭𝗲𝗿𝗼-𝗧𝗼𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Designed the system to run as a “set-and-forget” background service, handling errors gracefully and ensuring 100% daily reporting uptime.

• Skills: Python 3 • Pandas (Data Analysis) • IMAP Protocol • Jinja2 • PDFKit • Automated Reporting

𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: To eliminate operational bottlenecks in logistics, I architected a bespoke Laravel platform that centralizes the entire procurement lifecycle. The client struggled with fragmented workflows across disconnected emails and spreadsheets, leading to lost bids and pricing errors. I replaced this with a unified, audit-ready system that automates carrier communication and bid consolidation, reducing procurement time by 70% and enabling real-time decision-making.

𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗗𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀:
• 𝗦𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲: Engineered a custom dispatch system using Action Classes and Cron jobs to route complex cargo inquiries (multi-stop, multi-item) to targeted domestic and international carriers automatically.
• 𝗩𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗼𝗿 𝗣𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗹 & 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Built a secure, public-facing interface for direct carrier bid submission, eliminating manual data entry. Integrated IMAP synchronization to automatically attach email replies to project threads.
• 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲: Implemented Google Maps API for real-time route calculation and distance metrics, providing managers with instant price-per-km benchmarks for optimal vendor selection.
• 𝗘𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲: Designed a scalable MVC architecture with strict PHP 8.2 typing, Feature Testing (PHPUnit), and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to ensure stability and data security.

• Tech Stack: Python 3 • Pandas (Data Analysis) • IMAP Protocol • Jinja2 • PDFKit • Automated Reporting

𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: To help content creators overcome “writer’s block” without leaving their workflow, I architected and built a browser-based SaaS product. Traditional AI tools require constant copy-pasting between tabs. I solved this by building a Chrome Extension that injects Generative AI directly into the LinkedIn and Twitter (X) user interfaces, allowing users to generate viral hooks and thread ideas instantly within the platform they are using.

𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗗𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀:
• 𝗗𝗢𝗠 𝗜𝗻𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲: Engineered complex content scripts (content-linkedin.js, content-twitter.js) that manipulate the DOM to insert custom AI buttons and overlays seamlessly into third-party websites without breaking their native functionality.
• 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗘𝗱𝗴𝗲 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲: Built a secure backend using Supabase Edge Functions (TypeScript/Deno) to handle OpenAI API requests. This ensures sensitive API keys are never exposed to the client-side extension code.
• 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝘅𝘁-𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Designed the system to read the user’s current draft or reply context, sending it to the AI model to generate relevant, context-aware responses rather than generic text.
• 𝗦𝗮𝗮𝗦 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Implemented full user authentication and session management via Supabase Auth, creating a foundation for subscription management and user data persistence.

Tech Stack: JavaScript (ES6+) • Chrome Extension API (Manifest V3) • Supabase (Auth & Database) • Edge Functions (TypeScript) • OpenAI API • HTML/CSS
