Verified Performance Metrics & Business Impact
Partner
Partnering to onboard local stores into Scan to Pay and Pera Outlet programs.
Everyday Retail OS
Built for neighborhood sari-sari stores and micro-merchants who find traditional POS systems too costly.
App Architecture
Centralizes authentication, merchant profiles, and modular business tools in a single Turborepo platform.
The Engineering Challenge
Commercial POS systems are too expensive for everyday Filipino sari-sari stores. Most store owners lack tech skills and cannot afford costly hardware. My father runs QUALCOM, a technology center serving provincial merchants for decades. He saw firsthand how neighborhood shops struggle with manual calculations and lost records.
The Architectural Solution
We partnered to build an affordable platform for everyday Filipino shopkeepers. My father maps real merchant needs and sketches workflows with AI. I turn those domain requirements into clean, production-grade software. I engineered the fast counter register and architected the unified hub.
Core Technical & Architectural Highlights
One-Tap Counter Register
Features large touch buttons and instant change calculation to prevent math errors during busy hours.
Direct Digital Payment Workflow
Allows local stores to accept QR payments easily without renting costly bank terminals.
Unified Merchant Platform
Provides a single login to manage counter sales, inventory tracking, and partner business tools.
Agentic AI Pair Programming & Antigravity Acceleration
I taught my dad how to prototype merchant workflows using AI tools. Watching a non-developer use AI gave me fresh insights into real user needs. This helped me build simpler interfaces and refine my engineering workflows.
