What I'm looking for

I’m looking to grow into a full software engineering role in Agile teams—owning backend APIs and Vue/Nuxt frontends end to end—while continuing to apply AI/ML in practical, production-focused projects.

I’m a Software Engineering Graduate with hands-on full-stack experience building and supporting production features across PHP/Symfony backends and Vue 3/Nuxt 3 frontends. In my current role, I contribute to a live Australian comparison platform, working with a Dockerised local environment, 2-week Agile sprints, and Git-based code review workflows.

I enjoy taking ownership across the stack—Symfony REST APIs (service containers, dependency injection, Twig) and TypeScript frontends (Pinia, Tailwind CSS, Nitro BFF routes). I also build applied AI/ML projects like StutterAi (Wav2Vec2 fine-tuning, Whisper transcription, severity scoring, RAG chatbot support), while bringing a curious, learning-focused mindset to every sprint, from planning to retrospectives.
