About me

Alex Peluso speaking at a University of Delaware podium

I'm Alex Peluso, a software developer from Toms River, New Jersey. I graduated from the University of Delaware with a B.S. in Computer Science, concentrating in Systems and Networks.

In school I worked on systems projects like a UNIX shell and a compiler, and for my senior design project I helped build a data pipeline for EPRI. Since graduating, I've been working on personal projects to keep improving: mostly full-stack web apps with React, TypeScript, and FastAPI, plus an AI agent and a backend processing API.

I try to write code that's well tested and easy to maintain, and most of my recent projects run automated tests in CI. I'm currently looking for an entry-level role in web development or software engineering.

Outside of coding, I like working out, video games, sports, and going to the beach. I'm also learning to play guitar.
