# Alvaro Jesus Robles Meza

> Full-Stack / Backend Developer. Lima, Peru

I build end-to-end management systems with PHP, Java and Python. I write *code someone else can read and maintain*, because that is what decides whether it is still workable a year from now.

Currently specialising in Web Application Development at UNI (2026).

**Availability:** Open to internships and freelance work

## Interfaces

User-facing interfaces: an online shop, a studio site and the design of a museums app.

### Velkai

*Frontend development for a Forst client*

Streetwear shop. It started out selling a bit of everything and ended up selling only this. You can buy without an account, every seller gets their own dashboard, and shipping is tracked garment by garment.

**Stack:** Jinja2, HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, Pillow 10.4

**Live:** <https://velkai.vercel.app/>

### Forst

*Co-founder and owner of the site*

The studio site: three service tiers and a case section with real browser mockups. The background is a Canvas particle field that responds to the pointer, and the whole palette is four colours locked into tokens.

**Stack:** Next.js, React, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Motion, Lenis, Canvas 2D, Google Analytics 4, Python, NumPy, SciPy, Pillow

**Live:** <https://web-forst.vercel.app/>

### CulturApp

*Interface design and development*

A platform to discover museums in Peru, see what is on show and buy a ticket. 28 artwork entries with an audio guide the browser synthesises itself, and accessibility settings that carry over from one visit to the next.

**Stack:** HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, Web Speech API, localStorage, History API, MutationObserver, matchMedia, Intl

**Live:** <https://museo-woad.vercel.app/#/>

## Complete systems

Complete systems: the database, the day-to-day operation and a reporting module. What you see on screen is the small part.

### Street Burger

*Full-stack development*

Ordering, kitchen, till and inventory system for a burger place selling through four channels at once: QR at the table, delivery, pickup and takeaway. It includes order tracking and payment in cash or by Yape/Plin.

## Experience and education

### Co-founder

PENDING: since when

PENDING: what Forst is as a studio, what you handle inside the team of five, and what you have delivered so far.

### Full-Stack Developer (Freelance)

2023 - Present

I designed a modular web application that brought two business units together, centralising 100% of the information and cutting stock errors by 80% by getting rid of the spreadsheets.

- Modular architecture on a shared inventory and sales core.
- Operational control migrated from spreadsheets to a single database.
- Direct work with the client: requirements gathering and iterative delivery.

### Backend Developer

2023 - Present

I built an admin panel by tuning complex SQL queries (joins, subqueries and indexes), which sped up the loading of historical performance reports.

- Critical queries tuned against their execution plans.
- Indexes designed around the filters the reports actually use.
- Reporting layer decoupled from day-to-day operations.

### Frontend Developer

2022 - Present

I developed interactive, responsive interfaces (JavaScript, Bootstrap) refined with Nielsen heuristics and validated through iterative feedback.

- Responsive interfaces checked on mobile, tablet and desktop.
- Heuristic usability review before every delivery.
- Design iterated on feedback from real users.
