What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a remote software developer role in a collaborative environment that fosters growth.

I'm a dedicated Software Engineer with a strong background in automation, embedded systems, and integration testing. I have a proven ability to write and debug code in Python, C++, Java, and Bash within production environments. My experience spans the full software development lifecycle, from project planning to deployment, allowing me to deliver high-quality solutions that meet client needs.

Currently, I work at FORTNA as a Software and Automation Testing Engineer, where I lead testing efforts for significant projects worth up to $600 million. My role involves facilitating communication between technical and non-technical teams, designing and testing integrations, and developing reusable project templates that have significantly reduced setup times. I thrive in collaborative environments and am passionate about leveraging my technical skills to contribute to a dynamic engineering team.

Previously, I served as a Vehicle Software Engineer at Dematic Mobile Automation, where I led the development and testing of software for automatic guided vehicles. My proactive approach to communication and problem-solving has resulted in improved software performance and reduced downtime for clients. I am eager to continue growing in a full-time remote software developer role that allows me to further develop my skills and contribute to innovative projects.
