Hi there! 👋

I'm Samuel, a software developer based in the beautiful British Columbia Canada, and I love building reliable, scalable apps with Ruby on Rails, Phoenix, PHP and JavaScript.
I believe great code is code that's simple to understand, beautiful to look at, and built to last.

Say Hello

Projects

Here are some of the projects I've been fortunate to work on:

CodeCast

Stack:

ElixirPhoenixLiveViewJavaScript

A live-streaming and recording platform for developers. I built interactive real-time features using Phoenix LiveView and optimized data flow between the backend and the browser to keep latency ultra-low. The platform scales effortlessly to support thousands of concurrent viewers without breaking a sweat.

This position deepened my love for Elixir's concurrency model and how cleanly it handles complex user interactions.

Speed Shift Media

Stack:

PHPCodeIgniterSlim

An automotive ad-tech platform that serves dynamic car listings and analytics, helping car dealerships connect the right vehicles to the right audience. I contributed to backend architecture and RESTful API design, improving system performance and reducing response times.

This position was like masterclass in writing maintainable PHP and it also was a glimpse of how the advertisment industry works under the hood.

Clever Banana

Stack:

Ruby on RailsJavaScript

A software development studio where I was involved in developing custom web apps, including but not limited to e-commerce apps, CMSs and portal web apps.

This was my first professional role as a developer and I was fortunate enought to join an awesome team who took me in and enabled me to learn the fundamentals of development in a professional setting.
