Production-ready job aggregator processing 500+ listings daily from 6+ concurrent sources

What it does: Aggregates remote software engineering jobs from multiple APIs and RSS feeds into a unified interface with real-time updates, deduplication, and filtering.

Technical highlights:

• Data pipeline: Concurrent feed fetching of 6+ sources using goroutines and WaitGroups
• Efficient deduplication: Content-based hashing reduces duplicate writes
• Real-time streaming: Server-Sent Events with HTMX for live job updates without polling
• Performance monitoring: Custom httptrace integration tracks DNS, TLS, and TTFB metrics for each source
• Production deployment: Multi-stage Docker build, deployed on Fly.io with SQLite persistence

Stack: Go 1.21, SQLite, HTMX, Logrus, Docker, Fly.io
Architecture: Feed parsers -> Concurrent fetcher -> Normalizer -> Deduplicator -> SQLite -> SSE stream -> HTMX UI

Intelligent conventional commit scope suggestions learned from your repository's history

What it does: Analyzes your Git history to provide smart autocomplete for commit scopes, ensuring consistency without config files.

Why it matters:

• Featured in awesome-neovim: Curated list of quality Neovim plugins
• Community validation: Saghen (creator of blink.cmp) personally contributed to add blink.cmp support
• Pure Lua implementation: No Node.js dependencies, lives entirely in your editor
• Real user adoption: 35 stars, community contributions, used in production workflows

Technical highlights:

• Async git operations using jobstart for non-blocking performance
• Custom nvim-cmp and blink.cmp source implementations
• Frequency-based ranking algorithm for scope suggestions
• Smart caching with configurable TTL (30s default)

Stack: Lua, Neovim API, Git, nvim-cmp, blink.cmp

Learning: Built this to solve my own workflow problem. Learned how to design Neovim plugins, work with completion engines, and collaborate with OSS communities. The experience of getting it accepted into awesome-neovim taught me how OSS projects gain traction through ecosystem integration. When Saghen contributed blink.cmp integration, it taught me how quality projects attract contributions from ecosystem creators. Getting featured in awesome-neovim showed me that ecosystem integration matters more than direct marketing.

Async Wikipedia crawler exploring concurrent programming patterns in Rust

What it does: Crawls Wikipedia pages, extracts links, builds graph structures, and visualizes relationships using D3.js. Technical highlights:

Async/await patterns: Built with Tokio for efficient concurrent HTTP requests WebSocket real-time updates: Actix-web WebSocket integration for live crawler status Concurrent coordination: Tokio tasks, channels, and async primitives for efficient I/O-bound workloads

Stack: Rust, Tokio, Actix-web, SQLx, PostgreSQL, WebSocket, D3.js Status: Active development - working through async Rust concurrency patterns and graph traversal algorithms

Portfolio site with WebGPU shader demonstrations

Technical highlights:

• Built with Leptos (Rust web framework)
• WebGPU shader examples demonstrating graphics programming
• Server-side rendering with Rust

Stack: Rust, Leptos, WebGPU, WGSL shaders

I'm open to backend engineering roles where I can work with:

• Go or Rust backend systems
• Concurrent/parallel processing
• Distributed systems
• API design and implementation
• Database optimization

What I bring:

• Strong fundamentals in concurrent programming and systems design
• Track record of shipping production code and open-source contributions
• Self-directed learning and problem-solving
• Ability to work across the stack when needed
