hi, i'm arafat
i enjoy building things
I'm a software engineer based in Southern California with a passion for full-stack development. When I'm not coding, you'll probably find me outdoors—whether it's hiking, running or working out.
/about me
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from
Portland State University
(Class of 2022) and currently work as a
Software Engineer II at
Dexcom.
While my background is in front-end development with
technologies like Ember.js, I have recently transitioned
into a more DevOps-focused role, working with Kubernetes,
GitOps, CI Pipelines, and other cloud infrastructure tools.
Here are some technologies I have been working with:
- JavaScript
- Ember.js
- Node.js
- HTML & CSS
- Ruby
- Kubernetes
- GitOps
- GCP
- PostgreSQL
