Software Developer

Full-stack delivery for enterprise operations.

I'm Omar Vega, a Systems Engineer who enjoys sitting with users, understanding their hurdles, and translating that context into software they actually want to use. Whether it's a dashboard, a workflow, or a server rollout.

I split my time between NextJs/React frontends, NestJS and Spring Boot APIs, and the DevOps work that keeps everything running. That mix lets me own a feature from idea to deployment and fix it fast when reality changes.
