Minecraft Server Development & Management

My early experience with software development came through running online gaming communities. I started by supporting and managing users, later moved into developing software for the communities, and eventually took responsibility for running the servers and their day-to-day operations.

Java Development
Developed custom Java plugins for Paper servers, adding functionality and features tailored to the needs of each community.

Server Configuration
Configured and maintained third-party plugins and server settings, ensuring different systems worked together as intended.

Server Management
Managed the day-to-day operation of the servers, including troubleshooting technical issues, maintaining configurations, and deploying changes.

Community Management
Supported users, handled issues, and helped maintain the day-to-day operation of the communities.

Ownership
Eventually took responsibility for the overall operation of the servers, including technical decisions, community management, and coordinating the different aspects of running the service.
