As a full-stack software engineer with experience in HTML5, Python 3, JavaScript ES6+, SQL, HTML5, CSS, I am well-versed in both front-end and back-end technologies. On the front-end, I have expertise in React, React Hooks, and Redux Toolkit, and have experience in implementing real-time web features such as DOM manipulation and WebSockets. On the back-end, I am proficient in Django 4, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB, and have experience with Fast API and RabbitMQ. My goal is to secure a software engineering position where I can continue to develop my skills, deliver high-quality and innovative solutions, and be a fast learner and team player. I am excited to take on new challenges and further my career in this field.
