About Me
Hi, I'm Kathy Kexin Zhu, a software engineer and full-stack developer.
I'm graduating in April 2026 with a Master's in Electrical & Computer Engineering (GPA 3.95/4.0) from the University of Ottawa. and I'm open to full-time opportunities as well as part-time internships.
I build end-to-end products that are fast and reliable: shaping REST APIs and data flows, integrating AI-powered features, and polishing frontend performance so experiences are fast and reliable. My core stack includes Java, Spring Boot, Redis, MongoDB, MySQL, Next.js, React, and Tailwind CSS.
Colleagues describe me as collaborative, responsible, and detail-oriented. I prioritize maintainable code and clear documentation to keep teams aligned. I’m a fast learner who adapts quickly to new challenges, communicates openly, and takes pride in delivering quality without slowing momentum.
