Team Lead and Backend Engineer, Solar Power Hackathon, August 2025.

The idea

Air quality readings alone don’t tell a person how much pollution they are exposed to. AeroC turns hourly PM2.5 readings into personalized exposure risk estimates for the Philippines and Indonesia.

What I did

  • Led the backend team
  • Built a Python and FastAPI service that ingests hourly PM2.5 readings
  • Built aggregation and risk-scoring pipelines for the time-series data
  • Deployed it on AWS (EC2, S3)

Result

1st place out of 25 teams.
