My name is Robert Ortiz, and I’m a software developer who enjoys the collaborative side of software development; not just working with teammates, but also discovering different tools, frameworks, and systems to connect to create something meaningful. I’m particularly interested in how technology shapes learning, and I’m drawn to projects that use software to make education and access to knowledge more effective, equitable, and fun. I believe I’d be a strong fit for your team because I value curiosity and communication. I make it a point to reach out, ask questions, and coordinate with my team to overcome blockers and share progress. I’ve worked with React and Spring Boot to build reliable, end-to-end applications, including my Amazon internship project and full-stack apps like ChitChat — where my team and I built a social platform from scratch, learned deployment under pressure, and presented our work publicly. Experiences like that taught me how to adapt quickly, collaborate efficiently, and take ownership from start to finish. I’m looking for a role where I can continue to grow as a developer by building reliable systems, mentoring and learning from others, and gaining deeper hands-on experience with containers, Docker, and Kubernetes. I want to be part of a team that values curiosity, teamwork, and reliability; the same values that have shaped my approach to development.
