Global Kinetic

Between 2021 and 2025

Working on team projects, using test driven development, in an agile scrum based approach following strict processes. Here I worked on multiple projects, building .NET API systems using a variety of databases, including SQL Server, Cosmos DB and Redis. Applications contained with Docker and deployed to Azure for scalability. Being a team driven company, I fit into their strict standards where all code is reviewed and tested before delivery to ensure maximum quality. I followed the test driven approach where code is covered with unit tests and integration tests. With regular planning sessions, everyone knows what to expect so there are no surprises. I also contributed to the company over and above my job requirement, by building tools to assist with the testing effort and also by introducing tSQLt to the company to test SQL code
