Layered product interfaces spanning dashboards, code editors, and on-chain tooling

full-stack · web3 · ai tooling

Ten years of shipping software: web apps, AI developer tools, and on-chain systems.

I am Allan Brando Catayoc, a senior software engineer working remotely from Ormoc City, Philippines. React and Next.js on the front, Node and Rust underneath, Solana and EVM on-chain, and agent tooling around all of it. Right now I am building OpenBean.

OpenBean

A self-hosted memory layer that keeps company knowledge current and auditable across the people, AI agents, and internal tools that depend on it. I own the server, the product site, the docs, and the release pipeline.

openbean.xyz
01

Self-hosted, governed, append-only memory server that keeps company knowledge current and auditable across the people, AI agents, and tools that use it.

02

Public product site shipped as a statically exported Next.js 15 App Router app, with a seeded read-only demo, a 12-step discovery wizard, and an AI receptionist intake flow.

03

Versioned MkDocs Material documentation covering architecture, domain model, product spec, services catalog, and deployment guides for six targets.

04

CI release pipeline publishing cross-platform installers (Windows EXE, Ubuntu DEB, Linux AppImage, macOS PKG/DMG) with SHA-256 checksums, release manifests, and full SPDX SBOMs.

// what I build

Four areas, one engineer.

Most of my work sits somewhere across these four. I am comfortable owning a feature from scoping through deployment, documentation, and handover, and I write things the next developer can actually pick up.

What I reach for.

The exact stack depends on the job. These are the tools I have shipped real work with, across frontend, backend, chain, AI, and the delivery pipeline that gets it all out.
