Software Engineer Projects:

Streaming App (https://streaming-app-syp4.onrender.com/)

• Actively engaged in backend and frontend development, utilized React.js and Express.js, and managed a PostgreSQL database.

• Implemented a Restful API for seamless communication between the backend and frontend components. Ensured security of external APIs containing movies and TV series data, employed innovative solutions to avoid API key exposure, and prevented potential attacks.

• Applied critical thinking skills to break down complex problems and effectively plan development tasks.

• Tech Stack used: JavaScript, Reactjs, Expressjs, Semantic UI as a CSS framework, PostgreSQL, Render as a website hosting service

YGOEffectChecker (https://capstone-project-1-nine.vercel.app/)

• The goal was to help users search for any card to make efficient card reading streamline the process of understanding card effects and helping players grasp complex card mechanics easily.

• Developed a full-stack app to provide users with the ability to quick access card descriptions, rulings, and card interactions for Yu-Gi-Oh, a trading card game.

• Ultized Cloudinary and built a custom API to obtain all card image data with Python script from an external API, implementing rate limits to avoid stress on the external database server.

• Tech Stack used: Python, Flask, Bootstrap, PostgreSQL, Render as a website hosting service, and Cloudinary as a Cloud API service.

With high attention to detail, I separated out by COVID-19 Vaccine types, and ensure the information is matched exactly to the database.

Ensured high accuracy, I enter, verify, and record COVID-19 testing and vaccine information.

Configured 40+ computers, securely erased entire hard drives using DBAN, installed custom Windows 10 made by SCCM, and added specific required software to prepare computers for new hires and update computers for employee use.

Reconciled and organized 40+ computers in the department, then created them as new AD users in a specific organizational unit by matching room numbers with desktop and laptops with assigned transcribers to keep tracking employees and office locations.

Listened and assisted staff members daily via email and case in ticket system by analyzing and resolving problems such as computer hardware, laptop hardware, network, file permissions, application installation, and printer errors to help non-technical staff members with technology issues.

Maintained inventory on technology equipment and furniture by tracking physical count in Excel to keep record of in-house/out-house, salvaged, lost, stolen, and loan items.

Addressed peers struggle with homework and study by resolving and helping peers to improve their skills and suggest they use Stack Overflow, Github, and Google search engine as helpful online resources and their course books to approach similar problems to make more understanding.

Had various notes and books for tutoring peers in Computer Science, Mathematics, Information Technology, and Information System to approach similar problems and critically thinking about how to solve them to help my explanations better and show more examples to make peers understand well.

Explained the programming concept by showing my example code and pitching ideas to clarify their understanding to encourage the peers to practice on their own coding and finish their projects on their own methods and skills.
