John Nowell Andal
I build responsive, high-performance web applications, municipal logistics tools, and real-time civic disaster response systems. Champion of the 4th Beacon Civic Hackathon, leveraging Next.js, React, Node.js, and Supabase to engineer resilient digital infrastructure.
Engineering High-Integrity Systems for Municipalities & Communities
I am a focused **Information Systems** student at *Batangas Eastern Colleges* and a developer based in San Juan, Batangas. I specialize in building web applications that address real-world local administration and community challenges—ranging from market management to waste logistics.
Currently, I serve as a **Municipal Software Developer** at the *Economic Enterprise and Management Office (San Juan)* leading *Paleng-Click*, and as an **Apprentice Software Developer** at *Bridge360 Inc.* contributing to *Bazoora*.
As a developer, I prioritize reliability, clean workflows (like Git Conventional Commits), and robust schema definitions (using TypeScript and Zod). I believe code should serve a tangible, practical purpose, which led me to earn **Champion in the 4th Beacon Civic Hackathon** with sustainability-focused technology.
Technical Capabilities
Bazoora
Municipal waste collectors lacked routing transparency, leading to missed zones and unpredictable collection times for residents.
Engineered a real-time waste tracking platform that simulates GPS tracking along specific neighborhood paths, syncing dispatches instantly.
Collaborated with Bridge360 Inc. to build the core truck-tracking feature. Programmed the GPS path simulation on the map and wired real-time sync between client and server.
Palengclick System
Stall leasing and vendor record keeping at the Pamilihang Bayan ng San Juan relied on paper ledger books, causing audit delays.
Developed an administrative registry system that tracks complete stall assignments, records vendor details, and logs lease payments.
Solely designed and built the frontend UI flow and integrated Supabase authentication and database storage for municipal record validation.
POS Learn Hub
Retail students and trainees had no accessible way to learn POS software operations without access to physical terminal hardware.
Created a browser-based resource hub and learning console that demonstrates Point of Sale logic, transaction workflows, and configurations.
Commissioned to build this educational platform. Handled the modular curriculum interface and structured interactive POS concept modules.
MDRRMO Multi-Hazard System
Emergency dispatch centers face communication bottlenecks during weather disasters, lacking geolocated hazard reports from residents.
Currently developing a web-based reporting matrix that lets residents file hazards while dispatchers coordinate and map responder positions.
Architecting the multi-role dashboard (resident, responder, dispatcher) and mapping spatial coordinates using PostgreSQL spatial indexers.
