Hi, I'm Patrick 👋

I'm a Software & Automation Engineer from Canada.

I enjoy identifying repetitive or inefficient processes and building practical software that makes people's jobs easier.

My background combines industrial automation, networking, embedded systems, and full-stack software development. Whether it's automating infrastructure, integrating hardware, or developing desktop and web applications, I enjoy solving real-world engineering problems through software.


What I'm Working On

  • Industrial Infrastructure & Networking
  • Python Development
  • Docker & Linux
  • Automation & Process Improvement
  • AI-assisted Software Development
  • Embedded Systems
  • Full-Stack Development

Engineering Philosophy

I enjoy building software that solves practical problems.

Most of my projects begin with a question like:

"Can this process be simplified?"

Whether that's reducing repetitive tasks, improving monitoring, automating workflows, or integrating hardware with software, I enjoy turning ideas into tools that make people's jobs easier.


Current Learning

I'm continually expanding my experience in:

  • AI-assisted software development
  • Cloud technologies
  • DevOps
  • Infrastructure automation
  • Modern web development
  • Industrial networking
