"The more I know I realize I know nothing" is the guiding philosophy I abide by in my life. Embracing this mindset has led me to achieve significant milestones within a short span of time. Commencing my career at Jp Morgan Chase, I swiftly became a full stack developer and scrum master within just one year. Within two years at Chase, I progressed from being an intern to the role of a software engineer, ultimately attaining the position of a software engineer II. Motivated by a strong desire to enhance my knowledge and skills, I made the decision to pursue a master's degree at Concordia University. Simultaneously, I am honored to serve as the lead full stack developer at Concordia University, specifically at SSHRC-CRSH, where I continue to expand my expertise.

As a highly skilled and motivated Full Stack Developer, I am constantly driven by my passion for learning and pushing the boundaries of technology. With a focus on delivering top-notch, user-friendly software solutions, I have developed a strong expertise in both front-end and back-end coding.

My technical skills encompass a wide range of programming languages, including Python, Java, PHP, NodeJs, C, C++, and Ruby. I am well-versed in front-end development using JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Vue, HTML, and CSS. Additionally, I have hands-on experience with databases such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and MariaDB, along with frameworks like Django, Flask, Springboot, and Pytest. I am also familiar with DevOps tools like Azure, AWS, Kubernetes, SonarQube, Jenkins, and Docker.

In my role as a Lead Full Stack Developer at SSHRC-CRSH, I have successfully led the design and implementation of new application features, resulting in a notable 30% increase in user satisfaction and a remarkable 20% boost in user engagement. I have consistently resolved critical issues reported by the Test and Customer Support teams, maintaining a high-quality product. Furthermore, I have spearheaded process improvement initiatives, implementing automated testing procedures that have reduced testing time by an impressive 40% while enhancing product stability.

During my tenure at JP MORGAN CHASE as a Software Engineer, I had the opportunity to mentor and coach junior team members, sharing my expertise in Python and Django. I optimized database queries and leveraged the power of the React framework to develop dynamic and interactive user interfaces.

I take pride in my portfolio, which includes noteworthy projects like the Arogya Mental Health App and the Spoken Web Search Engine. These projects allowed me to demonstrate my skills in utilizing Agile and Scrum methodologies, resulting in faster feature delivery, improved team communication, and efficient project management. Moreover, I have achieved recognition for my exceptional skills in secure coding and application development, earning the 3rd place in the JP Morgan Chase Secure Code Warrior competition and the 1st place in the Code for Good Hackathon.
