Experience
Freelance Web Developer
Self-Employed
  • Designed and delivered web projects for independent clients — landing pages, portfolio sites, and small e-commerce builds — managing requirements, timelines, and revisions end to end.
  • Integrated third-party APIs and payment services, built responsive layouts with HTML/CSS/JavaScript, and deployed to cloud hosting — picking up React and Node.js on live projects where clients needed dynamic functionality.

Web Developer
BS Concept
  • Shipped front-end features for client web projects using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, working within a small team and meeting production deadlines.
  • Tracked down cross-browser rendering bugs via dev tools inspection and iterative testing; contributed to project delivery through pull requests, code reviews, and sprint task tracking.

Projects
Bachelor Thesis
ME-DT Framework
  • Designed and built a multi-domain anomaly detection system across transport, energy, water, and communications infrastructure using Isolation Forest — custom correction applied to reduce DOS-event false positives, detections surfaced through a Flask REST API.
  • Mapped findings to MITRE ATT&CK categories and visualised live anomaly data on a real-time dashboard. 68 TDD tests passing across the backend pipeline and API layer.

Rust / Systems
rust-scraper
  • Architected an 11-crate Cargo workspace for a production Rust web scraper — hybrid HTTP and headless rendering, CSS selector and XPath extraction engines, a tokio async worker pool, and per-host token-bucket rate limiting via governor.
  • Shipped two parallel UI surfaces: a ratatui live terminal dashboard and an axum SSE web dashboard with embedded HTML; SQLite WAL-mode persistence with crash-safe frontier recovery. 33 tests across 7 crates, 9 MB self-contained binary.

WhatsApp Business Bot
Whatsapp-Chatbot
  • Built and deployed a production webhook service connecting WhatsApp Business to an Odoo inventory backend over XML-RPC; requests authenticated via HMAC-SHA256, rate-limited per IP, and handled by Claude AI for intent parsing and fuzzy product search. Test coverage at 95%+.

Client Website
stani-hoxhes-website
  • Designed and delivered a full marketing website for a real hotel client in Kukës, Albania — Astro 4 with content collections, bilingual Albanian/English i18n routing, a static availability widget wired to an email inquiry form, and honeypot anti-spam. Deployed to Cloudflare Pages.

MCP Server
publer-mcp
  • Developed a TypeScript MCP server exposing 13 tools against the Publer REST API — three-package pnpm monorepo with a dedicated API client layer, Zod-validated shared types, and a full mock mode for testing without live credentials.

Edge Security Worker
cf-worker-rust
  • Wrote a Rust security service, compiled it to WebAssembly, and deployed it to Cloudflare Workers — JWT validation (HS256 and RS256) and sliding-window rate limiting at the network edge, with rate-limit state in Cloudflare KV and no cold-start penalty.

Profile

CS graduate with three years of hands-on development experience across backend services, full-stack web, systems programming, and real client delivery. Works across TypeScript, Python, Rust, Go, and Kotlin — picking the right tool per problem rather than defaulting to one stack. Has shipped production webhook services, 11-crate Rust workspaces, Astro sites for real clients, and MCP API integrations. Comfortable taking a feature from spec to deployed, tested code and integrating cleanly into an existing team and codebase.
