About Me
Pouya Alavi Naeini
Full-Stack Developer
I'm a final-year Bachelor of Information Technology student at Macquarie University (graduating November 2026), specialising in AI and Web/App Development. I'm passionate about building modern, accessible, and performant web applications.
I built Syllabus Sync, a full-stack platform helping Macquarie University students manage academic planning, deadlines, and campus navigation. It combines Next.js, React, TypeScript, and Supabase with strong CS fundamentals and a focus on user experience.
Beyond coding, I bring hands-on experience in customer-facing roles at IKEA and Zara, which has sharpened my communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills. I thrive in collaborative environments and love turning complex problems into elegant solutions.
