Highly Skilled Computer Science & Philosophy student with Extensive Internship Experience in Production Engineering, DevOps, and Software Engineering
Hi, my name is Roa Brahimi and I am a student at the University of Toronto studying towards a BSc in Computer Science. I have had the opportunity to apply my skills in a professional setting through internships in production engineering at Meta (Facebook), DevOps and cloud engineering at Equitable Bank, and software engineering at CIRID. In these roles, I have demonstrated the ability to develop and deploy scalable web applications, implement continuous integration and deployment pipelines, and design user interfaces that improve efficiency and user experience. In my free time, I have a deep love for philosophy and enjoy writing essays as well as exploring different styles of writing.
