What I'm looking for
I am an accomplished Senior Software Engineer with over 10 years of experience in designing, developing, and delivering high-quality web applications. My journey has been marked by a commitment to excellence and a passion for creating solutions that address complex, real-world challenges. I have a proven track record of leading and mentoring engineering teams, collaborating effectively across cross-functional teams, and adapting quickly to new technologies.
At Accenture, I developed and maintained high-performance real estate and e-commerce websites, contributing to a 35% increase in platform efficiency. My expertise in modern JavaScript frameworks, coupled with my ability to integrate RESTful APIs and GraphQL, has allowed me to deliver robust software solutions that support high-traffic platforms. I take pride in my ability to architect comprehensive suites of APIs and deploy CI/CD pipelines that enhance product quality and reduce errors.
Throughout my career, I have consistently focused on improving application performance and user experience. My experience at Atos and Capco involved implementing advanced caching strategies, optimizing database queries, and adopting micro frontend architectures, which led to significant improvements in efficiency and client satisfaction. I am eager to continue my journey in a dynamic environment where I can leverage my skills to drive innovation and deliver exceptional results.
