What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster growth and innovation in software development.

I am a results-driven Software Developer and Technical Mentor with over 3 years of experience in designing and implementing AI-powered platforms and microservices. My proficiency in Java and JavaScript ecosystems allows me to build scalable applications using Spring Boot and Node.js, ensuring high-quality software solutions. I have a strong background in test automation, quality assurance, and Agile methodologies, which has enabled me to deliver reliable and efficient applications.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led teams and collaborated with cross-functional groups to gather requirements and ensure seamless integration between frontend and backend systems. My notable achievements include leading the backend team for the development of the AMAP platform, delivering the AmaliAI v1 in production, and achieving 90% test coverage on APIs across multiple projects. I am passionate about mentoring trainees, helping them improve their coding skills and preparing them for real-world software development challenges.
