01 / FEATURED CASE STUDY

Aurawave Studio Contract

Private Directory Platform

I was hired to turn inconsistent third-party directory data into a usable web product. I built the Python import pipeline, PostgreSQL data model, backend APIs, authentication, search, profiles, map interfaces, media infrastructure, moderation and administrative workflows, and tested the product through its first workable release.

Transportation Coordinator I

ARUP Laboratories

Work inside time-sensitive clinical logistics systems where documentation, exception handling, escalation, prioritization, and reliable team handoffs are part of daily operations.

That operational experience influences how I approach software: systems need to remain understandable and reliable when real people depend on them.

05 / ABOUT

I care about how things work — and why they're worth building.

I'm Jaime Mendieta, a software engineer and computer science graduate based in Utah. I enjoy working on products where engineering, systems thinking, and interface design meet.

My projects tend to start with a problem rather than a technology: organizing difficult data, simplifying a workflow, controlling information in an interface, or understanding how a learning system should measure real progress.
