Software Developer
Contempo Space
- Led platform modernization across ERP, e-commerce, and internal systems as the sole developer at the company, migrating off a legacy OpenMage/Magento 1 stack.
- Designed and built a custom CRM on Frappe after evaluating the off-the-shelf product as insufficiently customizable; shipped v1.0 to production on Frappe Cloud with GitHub Actions test coverage.

- Refactored API/GraphQL and CPQ workflows while documenting system behavior to improve traceability and support developer handoff.
