Security-minded software engineer focused on backend development and automation.
What I'm looking for
I am a security-minded software engineer with a robust foundation in backend development, specializing in secure system integration and automation. My experience spans agile startup teams and structured corporate environments, where I have successfully delivered microservices and cloud-native solutions. Currently, I am preparing to pursue a Master’s in Information Security at TU/e, aiming to deepen my expertise and bridge the gap between software engineering and cybersecurity in innovative, international projects.
At Apius Technologies S.A., I engineered microservices using Python (FastAPI) and integrated tools like Tufin and Splunk to enhance network monitoring. My role involved deploying scalable applications with Docker and Kubernetes, creating automation tools for DevSecOps workflows, and ensuring code quality through CI/CD practices. I also mentored new team members and contributed to security reviews, fostering a culture of compliance and best practices within the team.
Previously, as a Junior Node.js Developer at mTap Smart City, I built microservices for large-scale data processing and collaborated with cross-functional teams in a fast-paced startup environment. My internship at Samsung Electronics provided me with valuable experience in software quality assurance, where I developed test plans and executed testing strategies to ensure software functionality and performance. I am eager to leverage my skills and experiences in a challenging role that emphasizes security and innovation.
