Eric Kogut

My name is Eric, and I am in my fourth year of Software Engineering at Western University. In short, I believe that I have a diverse set of skills and experiences which help me to achieve my goals & aspirations while maintaining meaningful relationships with the people around me. I have had the opportunity to apply my affinity toward various technical subjects during my last 4 co-op terms and numerous school clubs.  During the past few years in school, I have met a number of my personal targets - these include launching the Western Software Engineering club, winning the 1299 and 2257 case competitions, and being a founding member of a Western-based startup called CaseCom. In the very near future,  I hope to channel my competitive mindset and critical thinking skills into my designated field while lending a hand and supporting those surrounding me. I have had many privileges along my journey and, as a result, I feel a certain sense of responsibility to give something back to the world.

I have worked as a full-stack software engineer at Shopify, Celestica, and Evertz Microsystems, where he has contributed to projects related to merchant onboarding, API logging and ticket creation, website analytics, financial advisor automation, and network solutions engineering. I have also founded and led a software engineering team and a socially-focused hackathon. I have skills in various programming languages, cloud platforms, and data analysis tools, and is interested in machine learning and other emerging technologies.

I am a software engineering student at Western University in London, with an expected graduation date in May 2023 and a 3.7/4.0 GPA
