I worked at CitySwift for 4 Months prior to emigrating to the USA , at this company I developed my skills further in areas such as testing , debugging, CI/CD industry practices, Google Cloud Platform (Functions/BigQuery), Kotlin, Spring, Kubernetes + Docker and more. At this company my skills contributed to improving the accuracy and performance of the Swift Schedule Product and I have improved the client on-boarding times substantially by altering the code within the back-end of the Swift Schedule product. I also ran investigative spikes into the back-end code base during peak times , in order to inform my team and product manager of areas within the code that caused issues and hence made a action plan to fix said issues.
