My skills include the ability to work independently and efficiently, whether working remotely or on-site. I am able to communicate effectively with remote teams and have the necessary tools and resources to be productive and successful in a remote work environment.

I am also flexible and able to work on-site as well. I am dedicated to staying updated on the latest technologies and continuously improving my skills to deliver high-quality software solutions.

Experience

I am a full-stack developer with 2 years of professional experience in various companies. I have a strong background in programming languages such as C, JavaScript, Python and Golang.

In my most recent role at Eleka, I worked as a full-stack developer utilizing the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React, and Node.js) and Cypress for end-to-end testing. I was responsible for the development of new features and maintenance of the existing codebase. I was able to work effectively in a team-oriented environment and deliver high-quality software solutions on time.

Before that, I worked at Asterixsoftware as a full-stack developer using React Native, Java and Golang. I was responsible for implementing an API monitoring service, which helped to ensure that the application's APIs were working properly and efficiently. This experience allowed me to gain a deep understanding of how different technologies work together to build a complete software solution.

I am always eager to take on new challenges and learn new technologies. I am also flexible and able to work both remotely and on-site. I am dedicated to staying updated on the latest technologies and continuously improving my skills to deliver high-quality software solutions.

Education

I have a strong educational background, starting with my primary school education from 2000-2010, followed by my high school education from 2011-2014. I then completed my BSc in Medical Engineering from 2015-2020, where I studied control design, design thinking and programming. My BSc education had a strong emphasis on control design and design thinking, which has helped me to approach problem-solving and software development with a user-centered mindset.
