I've been building things with my hands since I can remember: robotics, PCs, code. After 2 years shipping production software at Wells Fargo, I'm ready to go deeper into the systems that make it all run. Looking for a Software role where I can keep growing while working toward a long-term career in cybersecurity through my MS in Computer Science at ASU.

A bit about me

I'm a Computer Engineer from Texas A&M International University with two years of production experience at Wells Fargo, where I worked on Java Spring Boot microservices, Kafka data pipelines, OpenShift container infrastructure, and CI/CD automation.

I've always been a hands-on builder — high school robotics, PC building, 3D printing, console modding — and software was the latest chapter. Now I'm deliberately pivoting into IT infrastructure and cybersecurity, where that systems-first mindset truly fits.

I'm enrolled in my MS in Computer Science with a Cybersecurity concentration at Arizona State University starting Summer 2026, and actively building fundamentals through home lab work and CompTIA certifications.

Work Experience

Wells Fargo
Wells Fargo
Software Engineering Associate
Chandler, AZ
2024 — 2026
  • Built and maintained enterprise Java Spring Boot microservices for a high-traffic auto lending platform, using Kafka event-driven architecture, MongoDB, and OpenShift in a highly regulated financial environment.
  • Developed scalable XML generation using JAXB and XSD schema binding for external partner document integration, eliminating hard-coded classes and reducing technical debt.
  • Supported migration of a core micro-service from PCF to OpenShift alongside a senior engineer, coordinating with DevOps, SRE, and QA teams.
  • Built a digital signature service using SHA-256 and an Apigee API proxy with firewall configuration to secure external partner integrations.
  • Refactored Harness CI/CD pipelines using Helm and rolling and blue-green deployment strategies, and migrated monitoring to Splunk Observability Cloud alongside the SRE team.
  • Coordinated build and release duties each sprint across up to 5 concurrent services, managing Service-now Change records and Agile sprint collaboration via Jira.
