01About

I’m Charis George, a software engineer passionate about building technology that changes how people interact with the world around them.

My interests span wearable technology, machine learning, artificial intelligence, distributed systems, and dynamic interfaces. I’m particularly fascinated by technology that adapts to people, their environments, and the situations they find themselves in.

I enjoy working at the intersection of software engineering, product development, and human-computer interaction. Whether I’m exploring new computing interfaces, building intelligent systems, or developing products from the ground up, I’m interested in turning ambitious ideas into practical experiences.

RNR

Machine Learning · Data Systems · Personalization

Remitted Neural Relay. An exploration of retaining useful information from previous interactions and activities to support future pattern recognition and more informed recommendations.

Distributed Task Queue

Distributed Systems · TypeScript · PostgreSQL

A job-processing system for reliable asynchronous work. A producer, queue, and worker architecture on Redis and PostgreSQL, with priorities, retries, exponential backoff, dead-letter handling, and idempotent execution.

Monitoring covers queue depth, latency, throughput, failures, and worker health.

TypeScript · Node.js · Redis · PostgreSQL

I continuously explore new ideas across software engineering, AI, wearable computing, and emerging technologies. Not every experiment starts with a finished product, but every one is an opportunity to learn something new.
