WELCOME TO MY PORTFOLIO

Hi, I'm Jose.
I build software
that works.

I'm a software developer focused on practical problems: from full-stack web applications to Python automation and AI systems grounded in real evidence.

01 / SELECTED WORK

Things I've built.

Four featured projects. Different challenges. The same focus on building, testing, and shipping software that does something useful.

01

Fieldwork.

An AI product-research workspace that gathers sources, extracts cited excerpts, and deterministically validates claims against supporting evidence to reject unsupported claims and improve evidence traceability.

Built with Python · FastAPI · React · TypeScript · Ollama · SQL

WHAT IT SHOWS AI agent architecture
Evidence validation
147 automated tests
02

CAST Tours AI Chatbot

A bilingual travel-assistance chatbot that retrieves approved itinerary information, strictly limits responses to the correct trip, and uses deterministic privacy and grounding safeguards.

Publicly deployed production chatbot integrated on WordPress for travelers.

Built with Python · FastAPI · Vanilla JS · Groq

WHAT IT SHOWS Production deployment
Trip-scoped retrieval
Bilingual guardrails
03

DetailDesk

A service-business prototype with customer quote requests, photo uploads, and an owner dashboard. Contributed frontend improvements, testing, and collaborative GitHub pull-request workflows alongside teammates.

Built with React · Express · Node.js · SQLite · CSS

WHAT IT SHOWS React & Express
SQLite database
Git collaboration
04

AI Job Search

A Python job-discovery and screening pipeline that normalizes listings into structured dataclass models and filters opportunities based on defined criteria. Backed by 18 verified automated tests.

Built with Python · Adzuna API · Dataclasses · Pytest · Git

WHAT IT SHOWS Pipeline architecture
Data normalization
18 automated tests
02 / EXPERIENCE

Beyond the classroom.

AI Research Team Member

Da Silva International / CAST Tours

SEP 2026 — PRESENT

I designed, implemented, and deployed a bilingual AI assistant for live travel itineraries. The work spans Python/FastAPI backend services, trip-scoped lexical retrieval, deterministic grounding checks, and automated regression testing—delivering reliable traveler assistance in production.

Project status: publicly deployed production chatbot.

03 / ABOUT ME

A little about how I work.

I like software you can actually use.

I'm based in Lawrenceville, Georgia, finishing my Software Development concentration at GGC. I enjoy taking an idea all the way from requirements to a working build: writing the code, debugging the rough edges, adding tests, and documenting what I learned.

I'm especially interested in backend and full-stack development, Python, and AI-enabled tools. The common thread is practical engineering—not using a technology just because it's trendy.

Some tools I use

LANGUAGES
Python, Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, SQL
WEB & BACKEND
React, Node.js, Express, FastAPI, REST APIs
DATA & ENGINEERING
SQLite, MongoDB, Git, GitHub, automated tests

Let's build something
useful.

I'm interested in entry-level software engineering opportunities, especially backend, full-stack, and Python development.
