Hey there, my name is
Justin Or.
I'm a Software Engineer passionate about algorithms, maths and everything in between.
About Me
Through my internship at MLC and NAB, I went from 0 experience in frontend development to being the frontend developer for my team's final year capstone project. I also picked up a plethora Dev Ops skills, from Docker and Kubernetes, to Jenkins and TeamCity CI/CD pipelines.
I'm currently working as a Backend Software Engineer at Canva. It will be an interesting challenge to develop tools for Canva's large scale user base and make design accessible and available to everyone!
