Complete My CS Degree at WGU

Earning my Bachelor of Science in Computer Science is the academic foundation that everything else is built on. At WGU, I am not just completing coursework — I am building a genuine understanding of how software systems work at a fundamental level. From database normalization to data structures to web development, every competency I earn moves me closer to the engineer I am becoming.

Ship Real Projects for My Portfolio

I am currently developing a full-stack Valorant Performance Analyzer powered by the Claude API and Riot Games API. My goal is to deploy a polished, production-ready application that demonstrates end-to-end engineering capability — from UI design in React to Python backends, cloud deployment on AWS, and AI integration via Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). This project is my calling card.

Land My First Software Engineering Role

My immediate objective is to secure a position on a software engineering team where I can contribute meaningfully from day one while continuing to grow rapidly. I am targeting companies that value intellectual curiosity, collaboration, and bold technical thinking — companies like Google, where the problems are massive and the people are exceptional.

Grow Into a Senior Engineering Role

Within five years, my goal is to have grown from an entry-level contributor into a senior engineer who owns significant systems, mentors junior developers, and influences the technical direction of a product. I want to be the kind of engineer that others come to not just for answers, but for perspective.

Build and Lead High-Performing Teams

Leadership has always come naturally to me — whether managing a crew of painters or coordinating a group of dogs (and their humans) on a trail. In tech, I want to channel that experience into building teams where every person feels ownership over the work and the psychological safety to take risks and learn from failure. Great software is always a team sport.

Work at Google

This is not a vague dream — it is a specific, concrete goal I am actively engineering my career toward. Google's commitment to solving problems at global scale, its culture of continuous learning, and its investment in its people represent everything I want from a professional home. I am building every skill, every project, and every connection with this destination in mind.

CeREbrus — Retail Intelligence Platform

lablab.ai Hackathon · Solo Builder   Transforming Enterprise Through AI

A retail intelligence platform powered by Google's Agent Development Kit (ADK) and Gemini. Three specialized agents — Knowledge Guardian, Customer Intel, and Synthesis — work together under a dedicated Governance agent that keeps every decision compliant and accountable.

I built the whole thing solo: the multi-agent architecture, the Python backend, and a live Cloudflare Tunnel deployment that made it publicly reachable during the competition.

• Stack: Google Agent Development Kit (ADK), Gemini, Python, Cloudflare Tunnel
• Four-agent design: three specialists plus a Governance agent for compliance oversight
• Repository: github.com/SergioB03/CeRebrus

Home is McDonough, Georgia, where my wife and I share a house with four dogs and four cats — two of the cats are rescues we couldn't turn away. Weekends usually start early on a Chattahoochee trail with the pack, and most weekday mornings I make the commute into Atlanta on purpose. There's a kind of focus that only happens when I'm surrounded by other people who are hard at work — the city is where I find my headspace, draw inspiration from the hustle around me, and make the connections that shape my career.

When I'm not writing code, I'm in a ranked Valorant or Overwatch queue. Competitive games are where the analytical side of my brain plays — read the situation, adapt, iterate, come back sharper. It's the same mindset I bring to engineering, and honestly, it's why the Valorant Performance Analyzer exists in the first place.
