What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a junior role where I can build full-stack web apps, design REST APIs, and strengthen scalable backend systems. I want a team that values Agile/Scrum, code collaboration, and continuous learning.

I’m an aspiring junior software engineer and full-stack developer with hands-on experience building web applications. I focus on delivering scalable software solutions and strong backend systems that power responsive user experiences.

I’ve built REST API-driven features using React.js on the frontend and Node.js with Express.js on the backend. I integrate data and services with PostgreSQL, while applying clean collaboration workflows using Git/GitHub and Agile/Scrum practices.

In my projects, I developed and supported full-stack applications, including designing REST APIs and implementing responsive features. I also work with Docker to support consistent development and deployment workflows.

I’m passionate about REST API integration, backend architecture, and creating maintainable systems that grow with user needs. I’m looking for an opportunity where I can keep learning, contribute to real product development, and improve my backend and full-stack engineering skills.
