With over 10 years as a software engineer, I specialize in full-stack development, Industrial IoT (IIoT), and geometric computing. Based in Japan, I am a native Japanese speaker and also offer business-level English, ensuring smooth collaboration on international projects. I build scalable web applications using tools like .NET/C#, Ruby on Rails, Python, and Rust, combined with modern frontends such as React/TypeScript. My hands-on IIoT work involves designing and building robust solutions: systems for RFID integration using Web Serial API, real-time monitoring via WebSockets/SSE, device data logging (like OBD-II), and developing memory-safe data processing components, often using Rust. I also tackle geometric computing problems (using Open3D, Shapely), optimize PostgreSQL performance, implement Redis caching, and manage cloud infrastructure and DevOps practices (AWS services like EC2/RDS/S3, Docker, CI/CD, monitoring with CloudWatch/Prometheus). Delivering concrete results is important to me. My contributions have led to significant project improvements, such as drastically cutting system deployment times (from days down to minutes in past projects), achieving substantial cost savings through technical optimization, and improving data accuracy with real-time updates. Experience also includes handling complex database migrations and developing essential backend APIs or e-commerce features. I enjoy solving complex technical challenges and focus on delivering high-quality, efficient, and maintainable software by clearly understanding the project goals. I'm currently seeking freelance opportunities in Full-Stack Development, IoT Solutions, API Development, Cloud Architecture, Database Optimization, Geometric Computing, or custom projects needing strong .NET, Ruby, Python, or Rust skills.
