What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an opportunity to contribute to real-world software systems while continuing to grow under experienced technical mentorship.

I’m a Computing graduate with a strong interest in software development, cloud engineering, and AI. I enjoy building practical solutions that solve real-world problems, from backend systems and APIs to cloud-deployed applications and AI-powered tools.

I have hands-on experience with technologies including Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, React, Node.js, Laravel, SQL, Docker, GitHub Actions, and cloud platforms such as Google Cloud and Azure. I’ve also worked on projects involving payment processing, background job systems, RAG/AI applications, and automated incident response.

I’m a self-driven learner who enjoys taking an idea from concept to a working, deployed product. I’m currently looking for a remote opportunity where I can contribute to a strong engineering team, continue developing my technical skills, and work on meaningful software products.
