What I'm looking for

I'm looking to grow in a software development or testing role where I can build reliable products, contribute to automated quality processes, and work across web, cloud, and data-driven applications.

I am a Computer Science graduate from the University of Queensland with hands-on experience in full-stack development, test automation, and AI-assisted engineering. I’ve built UI test automation with TypeScript and Playwright during a Software Engineering internship, and led frontend development for a university team project. I’m comfortable across React, Node.js, TypeScript, Java, and Python, with a growing interest in machine learning and building reliable, user-focused software.
