Projects
Open-Source Full-Stack AI Chat
I developed a full-stack AI chat application similar to ChatGPT but with extra UI features like split-screen, searching messages, and message suggestions. This is a full-stack open-source project built with Next.js, PlanetScaleDB, Clerk auth, and TailwindCSS.
COVID-19 Research
I led a research project on the system dynamics of the global spread of COVID-19, which culminated in a paper published in an Elsevier journal. I developed a data analysis dashboard in JavaScript which the project centered around.
Mobile Game Development
I have published two quick-play-style mobile games. First was Penguin Plummet, an iOS game written in SpriteKit and Swift - it started from a blank slate and I did all of the art myself! Next was Space Station: Run, a 3D endless runner game developed with Unreal Engine 4.
Professional Experience
Engineering Manager @ Corra
I lead the development of Pylot, a reference storefront for headless, composable commerce implementations. I've had the pleasure of managing and mentoring a team of React and Node.js devs working on enterprise-level e-commerce implementations for clients. I also work with Corra's marketing, sales, and leadership teams to strategically grow our headless commerce portfolio. Please reach out to me, ajones@corra.com, or via our website, if you're looking for an SI to work with!
