Orlando Leyva

I’m a software engineering student focused on building reliable, scalable systems through backend and full-stack development. I enjoy writing clean, maintainable code and turning requirements into dependable software.

In my backend and full-stack work, I’ve used Java, Python, JavaScript, and TypeScript, and I’m comfortable with frameworks like Spring Boot, NestJS, and Django. I’ve also worked with REST APIs, version control with Git, and team development practices including code reviews.

During my internship at Media Aérea / Drone Solutions & Technology, I helped develop and maintain internal web platforms for drone fleet tracking and operations. I built and integrated REST APIs using Django on the backend, contributed frontend features with React and TypeScript, and participated in Agile ceremonies such as standups, sprint planning, and retrospectives.

I strengthen my skills through hands-on projects, from a Medical Appointments app with Android Studio and Firebase to a lumber store desktop app using Java and MongoDB. I’ve also built a full-stack inventory management web application with HTML/CSS/Vanilla JavaScript on the frontend and a layered backend using Node.js, MySQL, and Sequelize with JWT-based authentication.
