Experience
Wells Fargo
Software Engineering Associate
● Took on a full-stack role and successfully rewrote & migrated an internal web app, from VB.Net to Java/Spring (back-end) and React/TypeScript (front-end) under a fast paced Scrum environment. This modernized the legacy web app while aligning with business needs through regular demos and communication with project owners.
● On the back-end, I developed 4 RESTful API services, using Spring Boot with JPA, to communicate with a Microsoft SQL Server database. To test these new services, I wrote Karate and JUnit tests, and utilized Postman to manually test and validate my API services, ensuring proper request and response handling, and verifying that the payloads, headers, and tokens were functioning as expected. This allowed me to simulate different scenarios and confirm the APIs were working as intended before integrating them with the front-end.
● With my prior knowledge of React, I led front-end development for our US team. I developed 6 new fully functional pages and 8 reusable React components by utilizing Wells Fargo’s internal React library. Additionally, I integrated my own API services, as well as services developed by other engineers in my team, into the front-end to ensure that data is dynamically being fetched or posted by user interaction on the front-end. I utilized Jest for unit testing and Playwright for automated testing.
● Quickly addressed defects assigned by QA to ensure timely deployment of changes to our non-prod UAT, SIT, and DEV environments for testing before production releases.
● Created detailed low-level designs for RESTful APIs before development, ensuring alignment with project requirements from the start. This facilitated smoother implementation, minimized downtime, and avoided rework caused by misalignment or unexpected challenges during development.
● Wrote comprehensive and detail-oriented API documentation for existing APIs. Which included the creation of sample payloads. As a result of this documentation, it increased developers' understanding of such services and facilitated seamless integration.
