Raymundo Ayala_
SW Development Engineer II - Dexcom
I have finished my education over at CSU Bakersfield graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science. I am currently working at Dexcom as a Software Development Engineer II.
Throughout my career I have gained considerable experience in developing both mobile and web apps. I have also worked alongside other individuals on complex and time sensistive projects. My main focus is backend and cloud infrastructure but I also have frontend experience. Fun Fact: this portfolio website is being hosted on an AWS S3 bucket as a static website and makes use of API Gateway, AWS SES, and some of its serverless computing technology(Lambda) to create a functional contact form.
I'm always excited to work on new projects so feel free to contact me if you are interested in building something.
