@laylahammoury
I build web applications with MEAN-stack technologies and lead Agile software teams.
What I'm looking for
I've worked with the Professional Software Engineering Unit at Palestine Polytechnic University’s Korean Center since 2019, building websites from scratch with MEAN-stack technologies and Scrum practices.
Since 2020, I've served as Scrum Master, planning software projects, turning user stories into tasks, preparing backlog issues, organizing sprints, assigning tickets, running daily scrums, and removing blockers for the team.
I also gained hands-on Quality Assurance experience at ASAL Technologies and built frontend applications using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Earlier, I trained students at Palestine Polytechnic University in problem-solving techniques.
My projects include an Angular weather app using the OpenWeather API, a PHP Prototype design-pattern project, C++ snake games, an Android attendance app, and a NoSQL course-filtering project. I placed third in the 2019 SPARK startup business idea contest and competed in PCPC programming contests.
