I design and build production-grade enterprise software end to end — solo. Two live platforms so far: Orbit ERP for colleges and Makenly for factories.
I spent eight years in financial operations before teaching myself to build software. Now I ship production-grade enterprise systems solo — the kind that usually need a team.
Everything I know about engineering, I learned by building things that had to work in the real world. An MBA gives me the business lens; Orbit ERP and Makenly are the proof in code — two production platforms, designed and built end to end. StackOrbit Labs is how I take that work to clients: independent, hands-on, accountable for the whole stack.
