What I'm looking for

I am seeking a technical role focused on full-stack development and system integration, in an Agile team that values mentorship, CI/CD, and opportunities to grow into data-science or architecture responsibilities.

I am an experienced full-stack Java developer with a strong background in systems integration, end-to-end application development, and legacy system support. I hold a BSc (Hons) in Computer Science and am currently pursuing online machine learning courses toward a Master's focus in Biostatistics or Data Science; I bring proven success designing databases, APIs, and integration solutions across enterprise environments.

I have delivered production systems and led integration and testing efforts at multiple organisations, applying Agile, TDD and CI/CD practices while mentoring junior engineers. My technical strengths include Java, microservices, containerisation (Docker, Kubernetes), relational and NoSQL databases, build pipelines, and monitoring tooling — all applied to improve system reliability and accelerate delivery.
