What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers opportunities for growth, collaboration, and innovation in technology.

With eight years of experience in the banking and finance industry, I am an analytical IT professional dedicated to solving complex problems and delivering high-quality code. My journey has equipped me with a robust skill set in mainframe technologies, including Java, COBOL, and PL1, allowing me to thrive in fast-paced environments while meeting tight development schedules.

Currently, I work as a Mainframe Developer at Danica Pension, where I troubleshoot business logic and performance issues for the Denmark Pension System. My previous role as a Senior Developer at Standard Chartered involved leading proof of concept initiatives and conducting training sessions for team members. I am passionate about mentoring others and fostering collaboration through Agile methodologies, ensuring that projects are executed efficiently and effectively.
