Profile: https://flows.cv/joshuashongwe

A hardworking full time professional with well-versed knowledge of Computer Science. Graduating from Stanford University and receiving a Bachelors of Science in Computer Science with a specification in Artificial Intelligence, I'm equipped with a deep understanding of Computer Science:

1. Operating Systems
2. Algorithms
3. Data Structures
4. Databases
5. Computer Architecture
6. Human Computer Interaction (HCI)
7. Theory of Computation
8. Graphics

I currently specialize in building UI/UX frameworks for Observability at scale. 

Outside of my education, I've accumulated over half a decade of experience in the Big Tech. Balancing a professional career and an academically, socially prosperous collegiate run, I've developed the ability to unlock missing communication within groups and brighten up any collaborative atmosphere.
