What I'm looking for

I am looking for a collaborative environment that fosters innovation and offers opportunities for growth.

I'm Rafael Andreou, a dedicated software engineer with extensive experience in full-stack web development. Currently, I work at Prismic in Paris, where I designed a live search feature that significantly enhances user experience by providing real-time results. My expertise includes leveraging AWS services to implement efficient solutions and leading backend architecture for real-time collaboration features.

Previously, I contributed to JetBridge Software and PROTOIO INC, where I played key roles in enhancing applications, implementing cloud-saving features, and automating testing processes. My journey began with a BSc in Computer Science from the University of Cyprus, where I developed a strong foundation in programming and software development practices. I am passionate about crafting well-designed, testable code and continuously improving my skills through collaboration and learning.
