Junior backend developer building Python and Django projects, including an ID validator for database-ready data.
South AfricaWhat I'm looking for
I built a Python ID Validator to check identification documents, including checksum, date, gender, and citizenship details, so data entered into a database could be validated. My projects also include a Python and Tkinter Minecraft Item Enchanter and a wallpaper downloader that retrieves NASA’s daily image.
At Best Deck, where I currently work as a Site Supervisor, I help protect company assets, support safety and quality on site, and act as a liaison between clients and the site team. I recently completed HyperionDev’s Software Engineering Bootcamp, where I developed my Python skills through practical work.
