About

Hi! I'm Pierre Smith.

Software Engineer

I build reliable full-stack systems with a backend focus. I like projects that demand clear architecture, data modeling, and APIs people can trust in real situations.

About Me

I'm Pierre, a software engineering student focused on building practical, reliable full-stack applications. I like backend work the most—authentication, data modeling, and clean API design—because it forces you to think clearly about systems and edge cases.

Recently I've been building projects like a multilingual PDF generation API (RedCard API), a marketplace listing organizer (Marketplace Cart), and a musician networking platform (AZ Musician Finder). Across all of them, my priorities are the same: maintainable code, strong structure, and features that are actually useful.

I'm looking for a software engineering internship where I can contribute to real systems, learn from a strong team, and keep leveling up as an engineer.
