Systems rigor.Product instinct.Software shipped.
I’m Soma, a software engineer who turns complex, high-stakes problems into products people can depend on—from stock-exchange systems and retail operations to self-hosted AI tools.
I work across backend systems, product engineering, and applied AI, owning the path from an unclear requirement to tested, deployed software.

Retail Operations Platform
A FastAPI/React/Flutter operations platform that helps retail staff manage inventory, purchasing, reporting, labels, and daily workflows across web and mobile.
02 / RESEARCH LAB
A tiny change in a pixel.
A big question for AI.
What happens when an image looks the same to us, but different to a model? My M.S. research explores self-supervised representations that hold up under steganographic perturbations.

I like the part
before the answer is obvious.
An unfamiliar domain, a difficult constraint, a workflow that almost works. I enjoy making sense of those problems, learning what they need, and carrying the system through deployment.
My path has moved from stock-exchange infrastructure to graduate research and client-facing products. The thread is curiosity, followed by responsibility for the result.
03 / HOW I BUILD
AI accelerates the work.
I own the engineering.
Claude Code helps me implement faster. I own the requirements, architecture, product decisions, context design, debugging, testing, deployment, and iteration. The release still has to earn its way into production.
