@phumlanikhumalo

Entry-level software developer building mobile and back-end applications with APIs, Flutter, and Spring Boot.

What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an opportunity where I can build and improve production-ready software—especially REST APIs, microservices, and mobile apps—while working with an Agile/SCRUM team and growing my skills in cloud and testing.

I’m a software developer focused on building practical products across mobile and back-end systems. I recently developed a mobile e-hailing app using Flutter, Firebase, and the Google Maps API to support local restaurant discovery.

At the South African National Space Agency, I engineered software solutions for web, mobile, and desktop using a variety of tools. I’ve also built microservices in a Spring Boot API project, and contributed to an e-Research tracking system using C#, jQuery, and MS SQL Server. I enjoy working in Agile/SCRUM teams, designing REST APIs, and validating quality with unit testing.
