About me

A software engineer who loves to solve puzzles. Experienced in object oriented programing I have completed projects in the fields of web development, robotics, simulation, and machine learning. I am ever curious to learn how technologies work and try them out for myself.

Prior to software development I was working in the aerospace industry as a manufacturing engineer. I Developed skills in project management, communication, and agile manufacturing. I have found that I excel at breaking down complex problems and working with a multidisciplinary team to solve them.

I am currently looking for my next position, If you are looking for a software developer with an problem solving mindset we may be a good fit. Please reach me at my email mkbonini@gmail.com to arrange a meeting.
