Java backend developer building scalable, clean-code microservices with TDD.

What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a new challenge where I can keep building robust, scalable Java backend systems. I want to work in Agile teams using clean code, TDD, and microservices, contributing to high-impact products while continuing to grow as a developer.

I’m a Java backend developer with 2 years of professional experience building robust, scalable applications in Agile environments. I focus on clean code, Test Driven Development (TDD), and microservices architecture, and I enjoy delivering reliable solutions on high-stakes projects.

At Atos / Eviden, I worked as a Junior Java Developer from March 2022 to April 2024, including building a real-time weather application from scratch using Spring Boot (back-end) and Angular (front-end). I containerized the system with Docker and Docker Compose, managing separate front-end and back-end services while keeping development strongly test-driven.

I also supported mission-critical work for the Paris 2024 Olympic Winter Games staff management application through bug-fixing, testing, and technical support, and I collaborated on the Netherlands elections project (Kiesraad) to count and validate votes across election types. I’m now looking for a new challenge to continue growing as a developer in teams that value engineering quality.
