About

Hi, I am Dirshaye.

I am a Senior Software Engineering student graduating in June 2026 and currently a Software Engineering Intern at Emma in Lisbon, where I contribute to backend microservices and API integrations within the Operations Backbone team, supporting internal data flows across logistics and warehouse systems. In my current role I am working with technologies including Go, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, and Grafana.

My recent Personal projects involve FastAPI backends, asynchronous processing with RabbitMQ, MongoDB data layers, and cloud deployment using Docker and Terraform on AWS.

I care about software quality end to end: clean API contracts, observability, robust error handling, and performance tuning that holds up under real usage.
