Hey, I'm AliUPTIME: 32YPRODUCT ENGINEER

I turn problems into products

Nine years of turning spreadsheets and "quick favor" Slack pings into software people rely on. If your team does it by hand every week, that's a bug.

About me,
at a glance.

THE STUFF YOU'D LEARN IN A FIRST CALL, MINUS THE CALL.

2016 – 2020· 4 YRS

01Break

Started in QA: learned every way a manual process fails, then automated the audits I used to run by hand.

Manual audits → automated

WHERE THE BUSYWORK OBSESSION STARTED

QA · AUDITS · LINUX · ISO 9001

2020 – 2026· 6 YRS

02Automate

Systems engineering: wired scattered tools into pipelines, CRMs and dashboards that run themselves.

A GAME I MADE · PLAY

Packet runner.

Your data packet is being flown through the legacy stack by hand. One control: tap, click or press space to climb, and slip through the gaps. It gets fast. I made it instead of writing a newsletter.

SPACE / CLICK / TAP TO CLIMB · SLIP THROUGH THE GAPS · R RESTARTS INSTANTLY

EACH LEGACY SYSTEM CLEARED = +1 · THE STACK SPEEDS UP · YOUR BEST RUN STAYS ON THE BOARD

Contact

Say hi.

My bot handles the form-filling so you don't have to. Rather just write? The note on the right comes straight to me.
