Kiana Knight

I am a software engineering graduate with hands-on experience building full-stack web applications and system-level simulators, paired with professional experience as a licensed real estate agent. I combine technical proficiency in frontend and backend development with strong client communication and project coordination skills.

During a software engineering internship at PPG, I collaborated on design, code review, debugging, and Agile processes, and I led frontend work on team projects such as DevFlow and Clarus using React, Spring Boot, and related stacks. I’ve built real-time features, REST APIs, and simulated OS scheduling algorithms, demonstrating both practical coding ability and attention to performance metrics.

As a real estate agent I represent buyers, sellers, and investors, manage CRM databases, create branded marketing materials with Canva and Adobe tools, and coordinate closings with lenders, inspectors, and attorneys. This role sharpened my client relationship management, marketing, and operational coordination strengths.

I’m driven to work at the intersection of software, UX, and product-driven outcomes, leveraging a foundation in cybersecurity, data analysis, and digital marketing to deliver user-focused solutions and measurable business impact.
