About Chen Ying Xin

I am a fullstack software engineer at Google, where I create efficient and robust software solutions for various products and platforms. I graduated from the Grace Hopper Program at Fullstack Academy, a prestigious 17-week intensive program that taught me how to incorporate JavaScript, HTML, and CSS into web applications with other technologies such as React and Redux. In my current role, I have implemented feature flagging systems, dynamic card-based user interfaces, and data integrity enhancements for Android applications, with Kotlin and frameworks like Jetpack Compose. I have also designed and developed a new API with customizable soft deletion retention periods, improving data security and compliance. I enjoy working with talented individuals to deliver the best results for my clients and collaborators, and I am passionate about continuous learning and staying ahead of the curve. I am looking for opportunities to leverage my skills and experience in fullstack development, and to contribute to innovative and impactful projects.
