What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build full-stack software and backend systems where I can contribute to real products, solve operational problems, and continue growing in software development and IT support.

I've built 8+ e-commerce applications for small businesses, including payment processing, transactional email, order management, address validation, and shipping integrations. I also created a reusable Node.js and PostgreSQL fulfillment backend deployed across client storefronts.

At Latin American Community Center, I built an internal IT support system with ticket workflows, OAuth authentication, requester history, and Google Sheets integration while supporting 50–60 employees and maintaining 50+ devices.
