- Designed and implemented a production persistence layer: Hive → diffable JSON workspaces with atomic writes and 1s autosave; credentials never enter shared or versioned files.
- Implemented Git-based workflows: commit, push/pull, branches, restore, and field-level diffs across 7 file kinds.
- Designed LAN sync over WebSockets with QR session auth and SHA-256 manifests — only allowed workspace roots, one direction, secrets/history off the wire.
- Built and maintained a workflow execution engine over REST (6 node types): chained requests, loops, and parallel branches that merge or fail on conflict.
- Monitored workflow health and investigated failures using success rate, latency, failing nodes, and a 0–100 health score, with Slack and Discord reports.

Designs, implements, and maintains production features.
GSoC 2026 (3% application selection). Strong in REST APIs, Git-based workflows, secure persistence, and service health monitoring — from local-first developer tools to products used by 100K+ people.
Experience
Where the work happens.
- Designed and implemented a schema-driven client contract on remote JSON and REST APIs: 40+ widget types, lists, forms, and navigation without a client redeploy for layout changes.
- Integrated production REST payment services for 1,000+ payees and built transaction status and analytics screens used in live customer apps.
- Shipped and maintained features across 3+ customer applications, including one consumer product serving 100,000+ users.
Projects
Things I ship.
- Service-based Node.js API with REST workflow endpoints, a confirm step before writes, and per-run logs for debugging.
- Packaged the API and Next.js client with Docker Compose for reproducible local runs of the full stack.
- Go REST API and Flutter client for nested page layouts: the client renders 15+ widget types and routes from the JSON contract.
- A/B-style layout experiments without a client release by composing screen and navigation variants from the same JSON contract.
