Junior Software Engineer

Cognizant is a pioneer in digital transformation, helping global brands modernize their IT ecosystems, integrate digital into their business strategies and drive business performance.

• I led a key project from conception to deployment. By optimizing the code and database interactions, I was able to significantly enhance the overall system efficiency by 20%, reducing response times and improving user satisfaction.
• I worked closely with teams from different departments, including QA, design and product management. I personally addressed over 50 issues by debugging, writing patches and testing the fixes ensuring that we met our project deadlines without compromising quality.
• Techniques included optimizing SQL queries, reducing payload sizes and improving data caching strategies. These efforts collectively led to a noticeable reduction in response time by 15%, making the application more responsive and user-friendly.
• I was responsible for reviewing the code written by junior developers. I provided feedback on coding standards, best practices and potential improvements. This mentoring not only enhanced their skills but also led to a significant reduction in the number of bugs in our codebase.

Programmer Analyst Intern

Cognizant is a leading digital solutions and services company, empowering brands to drive business growth and profitability.

• As an intern, I worked on key modules that were critical to the project's success. My responsibilities included writing clean, efficient code and integrating with existing systems to ensure seamless functionality.
• By leveraging Angular, I crafted responsive user interfaces that slashed load times by 30%. This significant enhancement was evident in both user feedback and key performance metrics, underscoring the impact of my frontend development expertise.
• One of my key contributions was optimizing queries, resulting in a 75% reduction in query execution times. I analyzed slow-performing queries and restructured them for efficiency, from an average of 5 seconds to 1.25 seconds and created indexes where necessary, which improved database performance and enabled our applications to respond faster to user requests.
• I took the initiative to write unit tests for backend components. This increased our code coverage by 35% significantly and helped catch bugs early in the development cycle, ensuring our software was reliable and robust.
• By actively incorporating user feedback, I successfully developed and integrated new features into our web application, resulting in a 25% surge in user satisfaction. This achievement was a direct outcome of my ability to understand user needs, design effective solutions, and implement them seamlessly, ultimately enriching the overall user experience.
