Popa Nathan

I’m a third-year Computer Science student at the Politehnica University of Timișoara, specializing in Computer Science, and I’m driven by a strong desire to develop my skills and learn new things. I’m proactive about turning theoretical knowledge into practical experience through hands-on projects.

I build end-to-end applications that combine modern front-end design with real functionality. For example, I created a high-performance React-based Single Page Application for musicians, including authentication, user profiles, and a music library management flow with an interactive Canvas and a stage-optimized Live Mode.

I also enjoy projects that blend software and hardware. I developed and deployed a Smart Traffic Light System using Node-RED on a Raspberry Pi, designing the hardware circuit and programming real-time switching logic based on proximity detection, while using InfluxDB to collect and analyze traffic data.

I’m equally excited by productivity and mobile experiences: I built an Electron-based command tool that integrates with the Planning Center Online API and uses a Google Apps Script backend with Telegram bot exports powered by Gemini AI. With Medieval LifeOS, I led Flutter development and implemented a full habit-tracking gamification suite with state management, persistence, custom UI, and notifications.
