About

I'm a full stack developer with a background that spans web development, IT systems, automation, and data reporting. My experience includes building Laravel and Vue/React applications, improving infrastructure with tools like Cloudflare, DigitalOcean, Terraform, and Ansible, and creating internal tools that help teams work more efficiently.

In my current role at Amazon, I build Python, SQL, Excel/VBA, JavaScript, Tampermonkey, and reporting-based solutions to automate workflows, improve operational visibility, and reduce manual work. I enjoy finding repetitive or inefficient processes and turning them into tools, dashboards, scripts, or applications that solve real business problems.

I’m especially interested in roles where I can combine software engineering, automation, data workflows, and practical problem solving. I like working across the stack, from frontend tools and dashboards to backend logic, infrastructure, and process automation.

📁 Projects

Selected systems and tools I built to solve operational and technical problems across production environments. Some implementations are described in a generalized form due to confidentiality requirements.

Automated System Monitoring Tool — Amazon

Built a Python-based automation tool that reads operational data from a third-party application and sends periodic updates to Slack to improve visibility into system status and reduce manual monitoring.

  • Implemented scheduled automation that runs every 15 minutes
  • Extracted application data programmatically when no API was available
  • Delivered real-time alerts to operations teams through Slack
  • Reduced manual system checks and improved response time to issues

Implementation details generalized due to internal-use policies.
