Hey! I'm Luis Amado, a second-year computer science student. I am passionate about Software Engineering and a lot of other cool stuff too! Feel free to take a look at my page to see more about me.
STEP Intern
- Worked alongside another intern to refactor and improve a complex and outdated image metadata indexing pipeline using C++, resulting in a more maintanable codebase and increasing compliance with other systems.
- During the 12 weeks, I completed the whole development process. From writing a design doc and discussing implementations to going through code reviews, conducting quality evaluations, launching, and ramping up traffic to our new system.

| Project | Description | Year |
|---|---|---|
| Bioguardianes | Multi-level interactive training experience for a company’s volunteers to help them document their environment’s flora and fauna by using the Unity Engine and C#. Built a full-stack web application to monitor the volunteer’s progress using the ASP.NET framework, a LookerStudio dashboard, and a MySQL database. | 2024 |
| NearMe App | Created an iOS application that allows students to find restaurants near campus. It also allows users to favorite restaurants and gives recommendations based on their likes using a machine-learning model based on other users' reviews. | 2024 |
| CerebrAI | Developed a web application focused on doing AI-assisted research during a 24-hour hackathon. Created a Python-based backend that makes calls to a custom AI model trained for research purposes and features the ability to summarize PDF, videos or websites as well as provide additional insights and answer questions | 2023 |
| Tester | Developing a full-stack web application using a React frontend and a REST API with NodeJS and express as the backend that allows teachers to create tests for courses and have students take them, checking them automatically. | 2023 |
| Block Sandbox Game | Developed a very simple Minecraft-like game. Created a custom 3D render engine using OpenGL to render the game. | 2023 |
| ChatAPP | Created a simple chat application that allows users to chat with any other user. Implemented a backend using Websockets in NodeJS to communicate the different clients with each other and added features like chat sorting based on recent messages and messages being separated by their dates. | 2022 |
Currently studying my fourth semester of university at Tecnológico de Monterrey for a Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Science and I will graduate on May 2026. Relevant coursework: Data structures and algorithms, Internet of Things, Object-oriented programming and Computational architecture.
