What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a Full-Stack Software Engineer role where I can build and ship user-focused products, contribute to real-world projects, and grow my skills in software architecture, system design, and modern engineering practices.

I’m a recent Software Engineering graduate passionate about building practical, user-focused software solutions. I enjoy solving technical problems, learning new technologies, and turning ideas into reliable products.

Through hands-on full-stack projects, I’ve developed web applications using React, Node.js, Express.js, and backend API development. I’ve designed and integrated REST APIs, structured maintainable components, and focused on usability and efficient data handling.

I care about strong foundations in software architecture, system design, and object-oriented programming. My experience includes database design and working with technologies such as MongoDB, MySQL, SQLite, and Firebase.

I’m especially interested in roles that let me grow in full-stack development and scalable systems. I’m ready to contribute from idea and design through implementation while learning from real-world engineering practices.
