houndslight/README.md

Hi, I’m Zachary (houndslight).

I’m a full-stack software engineer focused on building production-ready systems end to end. From backend architecture and APIs to clean, usable frontends. I care about correctness, performance, and maintainability over shortcuts.

I’ve worked across real-time systems, full CRUD applications, developer tooling, and cross-platform UIs, with an emphasis on writing code that scales and can be owned long-term.

Tech I work with regularly:

  • Rust, TypeScript, Python, JavaScript
  • React, modern frontend patterns, responsive UI
  • Django, REST APIs, authentication
  • Real-time and async systems
  • Git, CI/CD, Docker

Most of my strongest work is pinned below. Each project is built to demonstrate real engineering decisions, not demos or tutorials.

If you’re hiring or want to collaborate on serious software:
