I spent nearly seven years in e-commerce at Shabby Fabrics, and I got into engineering in a pretty roundabout way. I started out managing the product catalogue team, moved into a Technical Project Coordinator role, and finished as an Operations Engineer. Along the way I built internal tooling and connected systems that were never designed to talk to each other, like a bulk product upload workflow that saved about 20 hours a week. I've also done contract work for Western Governors University, helping design the database behind an internal project management tool built on Coda.io.

Right now I'm a Crew Section Lead at Trader Joe's, where I forecast demand and handle ordering for my department, while I build projects and look for my next engineering role.

Most of my engineering work has been in Python (usually FastAPI) and C#/.NET. I'm comfortable with SQL and NoSQL databases like MongoDB, and I've worked in both AWS and Azure. The projects on this site are written in whatever language fit the problem: Python and MCP for the warehouse ops agent, Rust for pview, and React/TypeScript for this site itself.

I'm not an AI engineer yet, but that's the direction I'm headed. I'm all in on using AI to build software faster and better, not just to build AI products. I use Claude and OpenAI models daily, both as coding tools and as something I build with directly, which is most of what you'll find in the projects and posts here.

Outside of work I'm either outside, hiking, fishing, camping, whatever gets me out of the house, or in on the couch with a movie or a video game.

I'm currently looking for a Software Engineering or AI Engineering role. If any of this sounds like a fit, reach out (scottpeters2281@gmail.com).
