About

I'm Karlo — a generalist software engineer and student. My work spans ETL pipelines, containerized microservices, FastAPI backends, and agentic AI systems built with LangGraph + MCP.

I gravitate toward tools that make other developers faster and projects that solve real problems for real Filipinos — pre-push security hooks, land-ownership systems for indigenous farmers, disaster-risk pipelines for LGUs.

Currently CTO of Seekers Guild and Cybersecurity Associate at Computer Science Society BulSU. Running Fedora Linux, learning Go, tinkering with a homelab.
