Software Engineering Intern — React Native · GSOFT LLC · Feb 2025 – May 2025

Refactored 15+ screens into reusable TypeScript components, eliminating prop-drilling and unifying style definitions. Engineered custom debugging tools and error boundaries that reduced production crash rates. Implemented strict REST API typing end-to-end for type safety from backend to UI.

Automated Cloud Microservices Platform — AWS (ECS, ALB), Terraform, GitHub Actions

Orchestrated a cost-optimized ECS cluster on EC2 with bridge networking and ALB dynamic port mapping. Built a GitOps CI/CD pipeline automating Docker builds, ECR pushes, and zero-downtime rolling deployments. Enforced least-privilege IAM and Security Group chaining for network isolation.

Docker Control Agent — Python, FastAPI, WebSockets, Docker SDK

Lightweight REST + WebSocket agent exposing the Docker SDK for remote container lifecycle management (start/stop/restart). Streams live container logs and metrics to a client dashboard with low latency.

Hardened Docker-Compose Stack — Docker, Nginx, Linux, Bash

Portable deployment stack with automated SSL and Nginx reverse proxying — spins up HTTPS-secured services in <5 minutes. Integrated Watchtower for auto-updates and configured Fail2Ban + UFW default-deny rules against brute-force attacks.

I use AI as a force multiplier — not a replacement for understanding what I ship. I architect, review, and own every decision; AI compresses the time to get there.

The pattern: frontier models for complex architecture and debugging, local models for routine work, always reviewing what gets committed.
