Problem. Voters can't easily see which candidates actually match their priorities, backed by real records rather than spin.
What I built. A neutral, shipped platform: enter an address → district lookup → set issue positions (-5..+5) and weights → get ranked candidate matches scored from 25+ public data sources (Census Geocoder, Congress.gov, Open States, OpenFEC, GDELT, Wikipedia, Google Fact Check, GovTrack). Express + better-sqlite3 (dev) / Supabase (prod), Vercel + GitHub Actions, Helmet/CSP/rate-limit hardening, 46 passing tests. Real data: 572 candidates, 664 races, 362 officials.
Featured artifact — the determinism report. A self-contained HTML audit documenting that the scoring pipeline is repeatable and atomic: schema, ingestor logic, caching strategy, and honest ceilings. It's the "show your work" companion to the live site.
Why it matters. Large-scale multi-source API orchestration plus an explicit determinism/repeatability audit — the reliability mindset an applied engineer brings to data-heavy systems.
