Vodacom, South Africa

Software Engineer (Dec 2024 - Present)

Think big red network, big red problems to solve! Took the wheel on Omniverse EKYC, a React monorepo with 2 personalities: an Agent app and a Customer app. Deployed to 50+ stores on AWS (EKS + Docker + Terraform), it now shaves 25% off onboarding time - the fraudsters hate it. Cooked up a product called PrepaidLTE, solo. The feature gave prepaid users custom bundles - 15% adoption in Q1 2025. Sprinkled in some seasonal cheer with targeted promotions and user engagement strategies.

Bonus level: mentoring 2 juniors + 1 intern, showing them that "git push" doesn't mean "send it to the moon", but rather "let's collaborate and improve together".

Tech Stack: Java, SQL, JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Node.js, RESTful APIs, AWS (EKS + Lambda + S3 + CloudFront), Git, CI/CD, Kubernetes, CSS, Tailwind, HTML, Agile, Scrum, Jira, Confluence, Docker, Terraform, Linux, Microservices
