Hi, I'm Miguel.
I build complete software solutions — from thoughtful frontend interfaces to backend APIs, relational databases, and cloud deployments. Open to new challenges and opportunities where I can continue growing as an engineer while delivering meaningful solutions.
Years Of Coding Experience
Projects Built
Computers have always peaked my interest, so after being laid off
back at the very end of 2022 from Qualcomm, I found myself at
a crossroads in my career. While I enjoyed learning about the low-level
details of a computer system, over time I found myself increasingly
drawn to software for its ability to transform ideas into products that
solve real problems. As my interest in entrepreneurship grew, choosing
software development felt like the natural path. Since then, I’ve spent
countless hours teaching myself through online courses, documentation,
and hands-on projects. Every project has been another opportunity
to learn, improve, and become a more thoughtful developer.
Outside of programming, I’m someone who enjoys challenges that require
patience, strategy, and continuous growth. Whether I’m practicing Muay
Thai, playing chess, or tackling a difficult technical problem, I enjoy
the process of improving a little every day. Today, I'm excited to bring
that same curiosity, persistence, and drive to a collaborative engineering
team where I can continue growing while making meaningful contributions
from day one.
Every project has taught me something new. These are the technologies and skills I’ve used to design, build, and deploy software.
Build responsive user interfaces and interactive web applications that deliver intuitive user experiences, consume and integrate external APIs, and transform ideas into polished, user-focused products.
Develop backend systems that power modern web applications by implementing business logic, designing reliable APIs, managing application data, and building secure, scalable server-side services.
Design database solutions that efficiently organize and manage application data, optimize query performance, and support the reliability, scalability, and performance of modern web applications.
Integrate applications with REST and GraphQL APIs to consume, exchange, and manage data, connecting third-party services, headless CMS platforms, authentication providers, and AI-powered applications.
Deploy, configure, and maintain modern web applications by managing cloud infrastructure, containerized environments, web servers, deployment pipelines, and production-ready hosting solutions.
Leverage modern development tools to streamline workflows, automate repetitive tasks, manage source control, debug applications, and improve productivity throughout the software development lifecycle.
Every project has been an opportunity to solve real-world problems, explore new technologies, and strengthen my skills as a software engineer. Here are a few applications that showcase that journey.
A modern web application that allows customers to browse rental inventory, explore available services, and submit booking requests through a streamlined, user-friendly experience. Designed for a local business, the platform simplifies the rental process while providing an engaging and responsive experience across desktop and mobile devices. Features dynamic content management, persistent shopping cart functionality, and an automated booking inquiry system.
A full-stack online shopping platform where users can browse products, manage a shopping cart, and place orders through an intuitive purchasing experience. Built to demonstrate the core functionality of a modern e-commerce application, including product management, order processing, and scalable backend architecture. Implements secure data persistence, RESTful API communication, inventory management, and a containerized deployment pipeline.
A dealership review platform that enables users to discover dealerships, browse available inventory, read customer reviews, and submit authenticated reviews. The application combines multiple services to provide a seamless experience for exploring dealerships and sharing customer feedback. Includes secure user authentication, automated sentiment analysis, microservice communication, and persistent customer review management. All hosted on IBM cloud.
