Junior Software Developer

Computer Science graduate (cum laude) building high-integrity, full-stack enterprise software — from ERP & WMS modules to facial-recognition attendance systems and the occasional pixel-art game.

about

Enterprise-grade engineering,
with range.

I write software that other people depend on — Oracle PL/SQL procedures guarding critical save/edit operations, standardized ERP views, and clean technical documentation. Outside the enterprise world I ship full-stack apps, mobile games, and ML experiments to keep my range wide.

Parañaque, Metro Manila

Junior Software Developer · Macky Champ Software Ventures, Inc.

  • Engineered a demand-forecasting engine implementing 5 statistical models — Croston, SBA, and TSB for intermittent/lumpy demand plus Holt-Winters and ARIMA for continuous series — with automatic model selection and confidence intervals, achieving ~5% MAPE on backtested historical sales and surfacing rollups by SKU, brand, or company total.
  • Integrated inventory with the ERP's finance module across 2 end-to-end cycles: order-to-cash (sales orders → accounts receivable → collections) and procure-to-pay (purchase orders → accounts payable → payments).
  • Built 4 core inventory modules (inbound, outbound, issuance, adjustments) for an enterprise ERP in C#/ASP.NET MVC and integrated them with the company's WMS.
  • Developed a budget planning and consolidation module that rolls department-level budgets into a company-wide view, with reusable budget references.
  • Authored Oracle PL/SQL procedures and packages for Save/Edit operations, implementing transaction-level validation to ensure robust data integrity.
  • Produced technical documentation for developers and user manuals for end users, ensuring clarity across complex system processes.
