Dexter Fernandez

I'm a software engineer who builds the tools businesses use every day: automations, data systems, websites, and mobile and desktop apps. My computer engineering background means I'm comfortable when a project has to connect to a database, a camera or other hardware. Tell me what you need and I'll tell you how I'd build it.

Services

What I can build for you

Workflow automation

Scheduled n8n workflows that pull data from an API or a website and send it to Google Sheets or a database such as PostgreSQL, with health checks so bad results don't get saved.

Data collection tools

Scrapers and pipelines that collect, filter, score and export data, such as brands to review. See my Meta ads research tool below.

AI features

Add AI to your system through language-model APIs, such as automated recommendations based on your data.

Websites

Responsive websites for businesses and events, deployed to Vercel and connected to your own domain.

Mobile app MVPs

Flutter MVPs for Android and iOS with QR scanning, camera features, and offline support. I build and test for both platforms. I can hand over Android builds directly; installing an iOS build or publishing it to the App Store requires your Apple Developer account.

Desktop and database systems

Windows applications built with C# or Visual Basic on .NET, backed by SQL Server or Oracle.

Experience

Where I've worked

Freelance Software Engineer

KodoGen Security Systems · July 2025 to present

I started by providing on-site technical support and service documentation for client deployments. As the work grew, I became the lead technical resource for KodoGen. I built an offline-first Flutter MVP for QR-based hardware tracking and modernized the company's Windows HR system by migrating its database from MS Access to SQL Server Express and refactoring its VB.NET codebase.

Full-Stack Developer Intern

Continental Autonomous Mobility Philippines, Inc. · Quality - Analysis Center · October 2024 to March 2025

During my internship in the Quality - Analysis Center, I contributed to an internal booking and equipment system. The work progressed from system design and flowcharts into development. I built login and sign-up forms, a custom annual calendar, an attachment manager that transferred selected files to the department FTP server, and Oracle-backed Equipment Registration. I worked in C# from October through December 2024, then switched to Visual Basic in January 2025.
