What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my skills in software development and project management to drive impactful solutions.

I am a highly motivated and adaptable software engineer with an MSc in Software Engineering from Queen Mary, University of London. Over the years, I have honed my programming skills and gained extensive experience in developing and deploying software solutions across various industries. My journey has taken me from being a Software Developer to a Lead Engineer, where I have successfully managed projects and resources while delivering high-quality software.

At DevBox, I led the development of microservice-based applications utilizing Docker and AWS, while also integrating NLP solutions using Python. My previous role as a Senior Software Engineer at Veritas allowed me to work on archiving solutions and container-based applications, further enhancing my expertise in C# and SQL Server. I am passionate about leveraging technology to solve complex problems and continuously seek opportunities to grow and contribute to innovative projects.
