Built a real-time booking automation platform that processes reservations with sub-second response times on AWS.
The trick wasn't speed. It was handling race conditions when 50 people try to grab the same slot at once. Distributed locking, queue management, graceful fallbacks.
The unsexy engineering that makes "it just works" actually work

🚗 Built GarageOS with Flowstep — a modern operating system for auto workshops and vehicle service centers.
GarageOS helps workshop owners manage the entire service lifecycle in one place, from appointment booking and vehicle inspections to repair job tracking, inventory management, mechanic assignments, invoicing, and business analytics.
My goal was to create a production-ready platform that simplifies workshop operations while providing a seamless experience for both service teams and customers.
This prototype showcases the complete workflow: Appointment Booking → Vehicle Inspection → Repair Order → Parts Management → Invoice Generation
Built using @flowstep_ai as part of the #FlowstepChallenge. Still refining the experience, but excited to see the concept come to life and evolve into a complete product. https://app.flowstep.ai/file?activeFileId=30b8570a-2457-4bfe-bd6b-de027c953ca5

AI agent that handles scheduling end-to-end 🤖📅
• Hold context-aware conversations (with memory across the session) • Check your Google Calendar availability • Book new appointments directly • Send confirmation emails via Gmail • Log every interaction to Google Sheets for tracking
No manual back-and-forth. No double bookings. Just a conversational front door that turns “can we find time to talk?” into a booked, confirmed, logged event — automatically.
This is the kind of workflow I build for real estate and home services businesses who are tired of losing leads to slow follow-up.
If you’re exploring how AI automation could save your team hours every week, let’s talk.
