Flagship Project: Fintech Portfolio Dashboard
Stack: Python, Docker, Docker Compose, WSL2, SQL
- System Architecture & Isolation: Engineered a containerized, multi-OS financial application using a clean architecture pattern in Python 3.9-slim to minimize deployment overhead and reduce image attack surfaces.
- Infrastructure & DevOps: Integrated Docker Compose to seamlessly orchestrate isolated backend services, safely decoupling configuration via environment variables for secure database migrations.
- Local Virtualization: Developed and optimized the local execution environment inside WSL2, leveraging automated local AI agents for rapid testing, continuous local integration, and infrastructure iteration.
TapeDeck Studio (Commercial Product Case Study)
Stack: Laravel 11, PHP, MySQL, Stripe API, AWS S3
- Engineering Lead: Orchestrated the technical execution, relational data modeling, and requirement scoping for a production-ready creative media platform.
- Cloud & Financial Integration: Integrated the Stripe API for secure payment processing workflows and configured AWS S3 buckets for scalable, secure cloud media storage.
- Lifecycle Management: Established standard engineering workflows, managing weekly production deployment cycles and structural database migrations utilizing Git version control.
Full-Stack Reddit Client
Stack: React, Redux, Express.js, Node.js, REST API
- State Architecture: Developed a modern client dashboard utilizing React and Redux for centralized, deterministic front-end state management.
- Secure Middleware Proxy: Engineered an Express.js proxy backend layer to securely handle OAuth authentication tokens and inject secure credentials into outgoing API request headers.
- Security Optimization: Mitigated front-end data exposure risks by routing secure Reddit API handshakes entirely through server-side middleware, protecting app credentials.
Unreal Engine 5 & C# Mechanics:
Developed proficiency in Unreal Engine 5 and Unity3D, building complex state machines, 3D asset pipelines (Blender), and exploring advanced Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) concepts through interactive game mechanics.
