ABOUT ME

As a seasoned software engineer with a strong background in multiple programming languages and development frameworks, I have a proven track record of delivering high-quality software solutions. My experience includes developing REST APIs using Scala, Play framework, and Akka, as well as working with various libraries such as CATS, TAPIR, and FS2. I have also utilized test frameworks like ScalaTest for writing test cases and coordinating with teams on end-to-end testing. My career aspirations include continuing to contribute to the development and enhancement of products, working in cross-functional teams to write and test production-quality code, and ensuring that new and updated digital services are thoroughly tested for accessibility and can be maintained and improved over the long term. I am excited about the prospect of working with a talented team of software developers and collaborating with stakeholders to gather, analyze, and validate requirements for modifications in business processes, policies, and information systems.

Designed and developed a web application using Django, which used parsed SOLR queries based on chosen parameters at runtime.

Used Sqoop and Flume to move data through various landing stages in a hadoop eco system once they had been through a cleansing process using shell scripts before placing Hive tables over them where required.

Developed MapReduce programs in Java to parse raw data and also used Morphlines to perform ETL operations on data before indexing them for SOLR.

Used Pentaho PDI and Informatica to transform data.

Used Spark and Scala for program development using TDD methods and data analysis.

Used AWS as an environment for proof of concept development and deployments.
