% OPENING SECTION
%=============================
I am writing to express my interest in the \position{} role at \companyName.
I am a recent graduate in Computer Engineering with a background in backend development, cloud deployment, and machine learning systems.
I have built and deployed full-stack applications and production-level services using Python, Docker, Flask, and CI/CD pipelines, and have experience working in both academic and team-based engineering environments.
Im eager to contribute my skills and energy to a team committed to technical excellence and innovation.
%=============================
% MAIN BODY SECTION
%=============================
\vspace{1em}
\noindent My experience in software engineering at the University of Guelph has honed my skills in writing high-performance, scalable code in C and Python. I have worked on real-time systems for robotics applications and deployed machine learning models on hardware-accelerated SoCs (Xilinx Kria). These projects strengthened my understanding of system reliability, latency sensitivity, and performance tuning.
\vspace{1em}
At the Robotics Institute, I developed and deployed a backend system with Node.js and PostgresDB for an accessibility-focused application. Hosted on AWS EC2, the system featured a web frontend that enabled real-time user activity monitoring and analytics. I maintained the entire stack, ensuring dependency updates, feedback integration, and security hardening. This hands-on work gave me direct experience with cloud infrastructure, devops tools, and end-to-end application management.
\vspace{1em}
In addition, I manage a personal homelab where I design, test, and monitor containerized services using Docker and Jenkins CI/CD pipelines. This setup has allowed me to explore concepts like automated testing, rollback strategies, and deployment resilience knowledge I continuously apply to side projects like ML inference APIs, Flask applications, and object storage management.
%=============================
% CLOSING SECTION
%=============================
\vspace{1em}
\noindent I am confident that my hands-on experience, collaborative mindset, and drive for technical excellence make me a strong fit for the \position{} role at \companyName. I am available for an interview at your convenience and would appreciate the opportunity to further discuss how I can contribute to your team. Please feel free to reach out to me at \email{} or by phone at \phone. Thank you for your time and consideration.
