Salinas, California · Open to technical opportunities
I’m Luis Jimenez, a bilingual technical professional with a computer science foundation, volunteer IT experience, and a construction-trained eye for detail. I’m building toward a career in IT, networking, telecom, or technical solutions.
01 / PROFILE
I’m most energized by work where I can understand how a system fits together, identify what is not working, and explain the solution clearly. Computer science coursework gave me the technical foundation; construction and customer-facing work taught me accuracy, ownership, and calm communication under pressure.
02 / SELECTED WORK
FULL-STACK · TEAM CAPSTONE
A game-discovery application built to help friends compare their libraries and find games they can play together. The project reflects collaborative development, interface design, and real-world software planning.
View repository ↗PYTHON · JSON · DATA
An in-progress Python application that loads weekly store deals, searches products dynamically, and matches discounted ingredients with meal-prep recipes.
View repository ↗MATLAB · ROBOTICS
Developed kinematics logic during a Hartnell College robotics internship, working with a 3D camera and a two-link arm algorithm.
IT SUPPORT · COMMUNITY
Restored approximately 15 student computers: performed resets, upgraded Windows 7 systems, improved browser performance, replaced peripherals, and prepared safe learning environments.
