Rushanshah Saiyed

Aspiring Software Engineer

I'm a third year computer engineering student at York University graduating by May 2023. I love building and trying new things out. I am a quick learner and I like playing with new technologies. I am well versed in java and python and I'm interested in full-stack software development as well as data engineering. I've studied the technologies and have learned the skills required for these roles. I think I am more than ready to start a career in either of these roles and I would like a chance to prove how my skills, passion, and hardwork could be of value to your company.
