Hi! I'm Parm Gidda
I'm a Software Systems Student | Software Devloper
About Me
I am a 4th-year Software Systems student at Simon Fraser University with a strong foundation in software development. My skills include C, Java, JS, and Python, along with practical experience in Android development. Currently, I am gaining hands-on experience as a software testing intern, where I work with both automated and manual testing, contributing to the development of robust embedded systems. Throughout my academic career, I have built a deep understanding of system design, software testing, and backend architecture. I enjoy tackling challenging problems and am passionate about continuous learning and improving my skills. As I near graduation, I am eager to bring my technical expertise and problem-solving abilities to a professional software development team where I can contribute and grow.
