Full Stack Software Engineer at Leap Softwares

About Me

I'm currently working at Leap Softwares as a Full Stack Software Engineer, and I received a degree in Computer Science at the University of Toronto.

I'm currently learning about:

  • Rust
  • Neovim (I use LazyVim)
  • Linux (I use Fedora and OpenSUSE right now, but I want to try NixOS at some point)
  • Front end technologies such as SvelteKit (Which this site is built in!), Vue.js, and Tailwind CSS

Outside of work, I enjoy playing Chess, rock climbing (sometimes!), biking, board games, badminton, basketball, and going to the gym.

Software Engineer Co-op

May 2021 - April 2022

  • Kubernetes
  • AWS
  • GitLab CI
  • Python
  • Java
  • Terraform
  • SQL
  • Docker
  • Helm
  • Jenkins
  • Prometheus

I worked with a team of 7 software engineers in a Kanban DevOps environment. I first started working on a monolithic Java codebase for the first 3 months, which was deployed using a Jenkins pipeline. For the rest of my co-op, I started to work on a microservice-oriented data platform with a Python codebase using Trino SQL and Apache Airflow, which was deployed using AWS, Kubernetes, and Terraform.
