email: [email protected] I’m a new graduate software engineer with strong internship experience building full-stack applications using React, TypeScript, Node.js, SQL, and AWS. I’ve shipped performance-sensitive, user-facing features, worked with APIs and databases, and contributed to production systems in healthcare and government environments. I bring a solid foundation in software engineering, clean code, and collaborative development, with experience taking features from idea through deployment.

This is really cool. I love that you have thumbnails for the games. I do have one question about the filters. Are you able to filter by more than one genre? I think being able to select multiple would be nice.

I built a scraper that pulls every job posting from the Who's Hiring thread, runs it through DeepSeek to parse the unstructured text into a uniform schema (role, company, location, remote, salary, stack), and presents them in a searchable/filterable UI. I know tools like this exist but I couldn't find one with the filtering and UI I actually wanted, so I built it myself.

Stack: FastAPI + Next.js + PostgreSQL, containerized on AWS ECS Fargate with an ALB. Frontend on Amplify. This is honestly my first real AWS deployment and I don't ever want to do this again. ECS alone took me a solid day to figure out. I also can't get amplify to use the domain I bought even though I set all of the DNS records up :/

Email notifications are still being worked on so right now it's just a view of all the job postings. Job match notifications and saving jobs should be up soon.

I would love feedback on the job matching and UI in the meantime (especially if you find a bug). Happy to answer questions or hear how you'd approach the AWS side differently!
