# Aryan Dang > Software Engineer @ Coinbase Location: New York, New York, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/aryandang Hi, I'm Aryan Dang,a senior at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, interested in creating solutions using tech. I love thinking about problems or parts of my day and try to fix or improve it using software. I have many emerging interests; but am most experienced in cloud computing, back-end development, web/app development and accessibility. I'm actively learning and gaining more experience in Machine Learning and Robotics. Experienced in Back-end programming using languages such as Python, Java, Javascript and working with SQL databases (like PostgreSQL) and NoSQL databases (like MongoDB). Expertise in building cloud-based solutions using platforms like AWS and GCP, particularly Serverless architecture using Lambda, S3 and Cloudfront. Familiarity with working in an Agile environment and producing well documented production-ready code.
