Achievements

Platforms and tools I have designed and built. Click one to read the story.

DataLegacy - Engineering Data Management Platform

Built for Suncor's Engineering department (internal platform)

A full-stack engineering database web app I designed and built end to end - it manages capital-project packages, equipment tags, serial numbers, and maintenance tasks across industrial plants, with role-based access, single sign-on, and a full audit trail.

Service Classes - Piping Spec Revision System

Built for Syncrude Engineering (internal platform)

A revision-first web app that replaces a legacy Access database for pre-engineered piping service classes - every revision is an immutable, reproducible snapshot, with controlled publishing and exactly regenerable document releases.
