SQL Azure

Software engineering student at WeThinkCode_ (completing December 2026), building secure backends in Java and Python.




I build projects with security and deployment in mind: Bank4Z, a banking platform with a Spring Boot REST API, Flutter app and Docker Compose deployment, and South-African-RailWaze, an offline-first rail travel PWA with a FastAPI backend featuring rate limiting and post-quantum cryptographic verification.

Alongside my studies I’ve completed Microsoft DevOps and cybersecurity architecture pathways through NEMISA, Cisco CCNAv7 networking, and a Full Stack Development certificate (FNB App Academy). I’m also a WeThinkCode_ Recruitment Ambassador.

Looking for: graduate, internship or junior roles in software development, DevOps or security.
Tech: Java, Spring Boot, Python, FastAPI, React, TypeScript, Flutter, Docker, SQL, Git
