I have over seven years of experience in software engineering, having worked as a senior software engineer at Zenput. Zenput is a platform that helps restaurant businesses streamline their operations and compliance workflows. During my time at Zenput, I contributed to the development of both back-end and front-end features, using Django, Python, MySQL, React, and Typescript. Additionally, I have worked as a private tutor, teaching JavaScript and front-end web development to beginner-level developers. I am passionate about creating innovative and user-friendly solutions that solve real-world problems and improve people's lives. I am always eager to learn new technologies and skills and to collaborate with diverse and talented teams. Quality, creativity, and impact are values that I hold dear in my work, and I strive to deliver excellence and value to both customers and organizations.
