Summary

Junior Full Stack Software Developer with over 2 years of experience. I help companies become more efficient by building robust, scalable, and user-friendly software solutions.

Example include:

* As a Co-Op Full Stack Developer for 360 ELM Ltd., we increased efficiency by 30% developing a mobile app where on-site managers can fill custom forms and send them directly to the server. This replaced a lot of manual data entry activities and reduced human errors.


I get excited about opportunities where I can leverage my skills to write modular and extendable code, effectively working in a team environment to create useful, efficient applications.


I love connecting with new people, so feel free to reach out to me at mrestrella4@gmail.com.

Work History

Safety App Developer (Co-op Program)

360 ELS Ltd. Calgary, AB
01.2023 - 04.2023

As a member of a collaborative team, I played a crucial role in designing and developing an MVP (Minimum Viable Product) aimed at streamlining form management at 360 ELM.

We increased efficiency by 30% developing a mobile app where on-site managers can fill custom forms and send them directly to the server. This replaced a lot of manual data entry activities and reduced human errors.

Users simply need to sign in with their credentials, select the form, fill it out, and send it. The app instantly saves a PDF copy on the company's private server, resulting in immediate and efficient transportation of information. As a result the company can easily manage that information digitally, preventing human errors of previous processes.

Responsibilities:

  • Developed UI design of the complete application using Android Studio and Java.
  • Developed 19 page form (screens) with text inputs, checkbox and radioButtons.
  • Developed Java classes to read data inputs and save them in Json objects.
  • Developed class to interpret options chosen by users in checkboxes and radiobuttons to be saved in Json objects, saving them in a Json file, inside the internal memory of the mobile device.
  • Developed class to read all user responses stored in the Json file, displaying them in a final screen with the option to convert the screen into a PDF file.
