About

Java developer, clean engineering

Final-year Software Engineering student focused on building structured backend systems with Java, Spring Boot, and MySQL.

I am a final-year Software Engineering student at Universiti Malaysia Terengganu, specializing in backend development using Java and Spring Boot.

I build structured backend systems using layered architecture (Controller–Service–Repository) and apply MVC principles in both Spring Boot and traditional Java (JSP & Servlets). My experience includes designing RESTful APIs, integrating relational databases with MySQL, and implementing clean separation of concerns in application design.

I developed a Campus Marketplace Platform as part of my final-year project, focusing on scalable backend architecture, database design, and real-world deployment practices. The platform is now live at umtmarket.ahsmart.dev, with both the application and database hosted on a DigitalOcean VPS. I also work with Node.js and Express.js, integrate third-party services such as Cloudinary for media management, and deploy containerized applications using Docker to platforms like Render and TiDB.

Internship goal

I am seeking a backend or software engineering internship where I can contribute to production-level systems and continue advancing my engineering skills.

Highlights

  • University: Universiti Malaysia Terengganu
  • Architecture: Controller → Service → Repository
  • Patterns: MVC (Spring Boot + JSP/Servlet)
  • APIs: RESTful API design & integration
  • Database: MySQL + relational design
  • Deploy: DigitalOcean VPS • Docker • Render • TiDB
  • Services: Cloudinary for media management
