Driven software developer passionate about innovative technology solutions.
What I'm looking for
I am a critical thinker and a driven software developer with a passion for learning and exploring new technologies. My journey in computer science has equipped me with the skills to tackle complex problems and develop efficient solutions. I thrive on understanding the root causes of issues and am dedicated to improving system reliability and performance.
During my tenure as a Software Developer at Speur Professional Services, I spearheaded initiatives that significantly enhanced customer satisfaction and system efficiency. I successfully streamlined webpage logic, resulting in a 25% increase in load times, and improved database efficiency by updating scripts to align with the latest database version. My experience also includes maintaining codebases for CRM and SIS platforms at the University of the West Indies, where I ensured stakeholder requirements were met through diligent bug-fixing and system improvements.
As an ACM ICPC National Champion and a winner of the Coders of the Caribbean Hackathon, I have demonstrated my ability to excel in competitive environments. I am eager to bring my skills and innovative mindset to new challenges in the tech industry.
