What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative, product-focused engineering role where I can build scalable web/mobile/cloud systems, contribute to ML-driven features, and grow in full-stack and cloud architecture responsibilities.

I am a First Class Honours Software Engineer experienced in building scalable web and mobile applications, integrating REST APIs, and delivering end-to-end solutions across the development lifecycle. I have engineered CRM platforms, dashboards, and cloud-connected applications that improved productivity and user adoption.

My recent roles include full-stack and associate software engineering positions where I built modular React frontends, Flutter mobile apps, and AWS-backed services. I designed and deployed production-grade cloud solutions (S3, Lambda, DynamoDB, Cognito) and implemented serverless architectures with strong focus on security, fault tolerance, and performance.

I combine practical UI/UX skills and psychology knowledge with applied machine learning in projects such as multimodal recommendation systems and audio/lyrics emotion analysis. I collaborate in Agile teams, conduct user testing, and deliver reusable, accessible component-driven interfaces that drive measurable engagement.
