What I'm looking for
I am a motivated and detail-oriented software engineer with a strong foundation in both front-end and back-end development, gained through a full-stack bootcamp and independent projects. With five years of leadership experience in high-pressure environments, I bring a unique blend of technical skills and a team-oriented mindset to any engineering team. I am eager to contribute my skills and grow as a developer.
My experience includes working as a Senior Manufacturing Associate at Bristol Myers Squibb, where I operated under strict cGMP and FDA regulations to support CAR-T cell therapy.
