Stanley Altonaga - Full Stack Developer

John Stanley Altonaga

Summary

Based in the Philippines, I'm a computer science graduate at Silliman University, building at the intersection of web development, automation, and AI.

My focus today is on generative and agentic AI, and on designing multi-pipeline systems where data, models, and automation click together like puzzle pieces.

I'm passionate about turning ideas into real-world solutions, earning recognition in regional and provincial hackathons.

Outside of code, I'm drawn to neuroscience and the future of brain-computer interfaces. Off the clock, I'm more or less rotting in video games
