Cathal O'Rourke

As a Computer Systems graduate, I have developed a solid foundation in object-oriented programming, data structures, and full-stack web development. My academic journey has equipped me with practical skills in Python, Java, and JavaScript, which I applied in various coursework and projects. I am passionate about building impactful applications and am eager to contribute my skills in a junior software engineering role.

During my internship at Viotas, I successfully developed a web application using JavaScript and the Google Maps API, enhancing user experience through interactive features. I collaborated with my team to design UI components and backend logic, ensuring the reliability and maintainability of our applications through rigorous testing. My experience as a fast food worker further honed my communication and multitasking skills, allowing me to thrive in high-pressure environments.

For my final year project, I designed a choice-based ethical dilemma game that analyzed player decisions and ethical priorities. This project not only showcased my technical abilities but also my commitment to exploring meaningful applications of technology. I am excited to bring my skills and enthusiasm to a dynamic team where I can continue to learn and grow.
