Hello there๐Ÿ‘‹

I'm Kyle, a software developer based in Vancouver, Canada.

/About

I'm a software engineer with Amazon's Payment Products team based in Vancouver, Canada. My team and I work on providing servicing features for Amazon's US co-branded credit card and internal toolkit for monitoring the health of Amazon systems. We support application flows for the credit card allowing many customers to receive near instant approval for their credit. We also maintain an internal toolkit Opera for continous monitoring of Amazon systems, primarly through canary tests, allowing teams to quickly identify issues with their systems and resolve them before they impact customers.

Prior to this I worked at the BC Centre for Disease Control on systems for identifying and tracking infectious outbreaks such as COVID-19, and received a master's of computer science from the University of British Columbia.

The following are technologies I work with through my job or personal projects:

Javascript ES6
React
NextJS
Java
Python
Django

When I'm not in front of a screen I can be found exploring the city on foot or bike, in a coffee shop, or walking my duck toller puppy ๐Ÿถ. Outside of work I tinker with personal projects when I can find the time. I'm currently developing a financial management app to allow users to develop healthier financial habits.
