Samuel Mera Ricardo
Software Engineer
Systems-minded builder
Terminal UI enjoyerI build reliable software across backend, full-stack, AV/device systems,
and hardware-adjacent projects.
I like debugging difficult problems, designing practical tools, and
building interfaces that feel clean, intentional, and useful.
Most of my work has lived where software meets real-world systems:
monitoring, control, telemetry, automation, and operational reliability.backend-engineering/
