👩‍💻 About Me

I’m a Full Stack Software Engineer with a strong foundation in Java, Spring Boot, and Angular, currently working at Ford on the API Cybersecurity Team. I focus on building secure, scalable APIs, automating security workflows, and deploying cloud-native services using Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Terraform, and Tekton.

At Ford, I independently migrated the frontend codebase to Angular 17, reducing technical debt and improving performance across internal platforms. I contributed to major platform upgrades including Azure Entra ID, Apigee, and cluster migrations, helping standardize and secure API infrastructure. I also implemented automated vulnerability scanning and compliance checks using tools like 42Crunch, Checkmarx, FOSSA, JFrog, and Cycode, improving security coverage across multiple teams. Additionally, I developed internal tools using the Jira API and Microsoft Teams API to improve workflow visibility and reduce manual effort.

Previously at BNP Paribas, I developed an instant payment application using Java EE and JBoss EAP, handled production incidents with Splunk and SQL*Plus, and helped increase test coverage by up to 80% using Mockito, PowerMock, and SonarQube. As an intern, I built a full stack web application using Spring Boot, AngularJS, and Hibernate, gaining hands-on experience with enterprise development and deployment using Liberty.

My background includes:
🔹 Backend development with Java, Spring Boot, Java EE, JBoss EAP, and REST/SOAP APIs
🔹 Frontend development with Angular (JS–17), TypeScript, HTML, and CSS
🔹 Cloud & CI/CD using GCP, Terraform, Tekton, Jenkins, and Maven
🔹 Strong emphasis on API security and system reliability
🔹 Comfortable with tools and platforms like Hibernate, ElasticSearch, Git, Splunk, Nexus, and ServiceNow
