Currently deepening my Java and Spring Boot practice, with a strong interest in distributed systems, process automation, and cloud infrastructure.

Projects

CAPO

Feb 2025 - Jul 2025

IADE - Creative University

A system that tracks parts through an industrial pipe factory — cutting, assembly, welding — releasing the next stage automatically as soon as the last one's done.

  • Each operator only sees the stage of their own role — cutting, assembly, or welding.
  • The next stage unlocks by itself as soon as the previous one's done, with no duplicated data.
  • Updates in real time: the next station sees the new order without reloading the page.
