Portfolio

Buffered Website (Development)

I implemented various new payment solutions into an existing subscription system, such as BitPay or Play Store subscriptions. I also developed most of the new site features and handled routine maintenance tasks.

Buffered Application (Development)

I created the build system that compiled a PyQt application to the three most popular desktop platforms and the two most popular mobile platforms. While porting the application to Android I also added support for Google Play's subscription system.

Designed and built an automatic assignment evaluation and education system from the ground up. It handles creating unique exercises through its intuitive web interface and running the submitted solutions in a safe container.

I was a part of a six-person team creating this open source IaaS cloud management system. It has been up and running for more than five years at multiple universities.
