About Me

Building Scalable Web and Mobile Systems

I'm Gene Lin, a Rice University Master of Computer Science graduate with software engineering internships building full-stack product tools, backend APIs, and cloud-deployed systems.

Recently I've been building React/Next.js interfaces, Fastify and Python API workflows, PostgreSQL and MySQL data models, OAuth/JWT authentication flows, SwiftUI clients, and app-controlled agentic AI workflows.
