What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster innovation, collaboration, and growth.

As a Full Stack Software Engineer, I specialize in building scalable and maintainable web and mobile applications, with a strong focus on Java. My experience includes designing efficient software solutions and optimizing CI/CD pipelines. I am eager to apply my technical and problem-solving skills to innovative software development projects.

At Digicel, I improved software development efficiency by 30% and reduced deployment errors by leading the design and integration of build and release pipelines. My efforts enhanced the reliability of the entire software development life-cycle. Additionally, I boosted internal application performance by maintaining mission-critical applications, resulting in increased operational throughput for core business operations.

During my time as a Software Developer Consultant at NCB, I enhanced system functionality by 15% through analyzing and optimizing legacy software, which reduced operational bottlenecks. I also contributed to the development of a scalable loan management system supporting millions of users, enhancing financial accessibility and operational efficiency.
