Hello, DEV!
Although January is coming to an end, I'm excited to share my first post and New Year's resolutions.
My main goal for 2024 is to secure a job as a full-stack developer after a career break. The timeline is the end of 2024, hopefully before my birthday in December.
A bit about my background
I have 8+ years of experience as a software developer, focusing on backend technologies with Java and PHP. I've felt a slowdown in my career over the past few years and am now eager to reignite my professional journey. I'm currently refreshing my skills in the latest version of Java since my knowledge stops at Java 8. I'm also interested in expanding my knowledge of modern full-stack technologies, especially frontend and DevOps.
Action plan
- Write one post per month, starting with this January post.
- Create a personal portfolio website.
- Prepare for coding interviews on Leetcode and HackerRank.
- Work on personal projects to refresh my skills and learn new ones.
- Take some courses and obtain certifications.
List of my interests
Anyway, I've jotted down a list of my interests for now, though I'm still unsure what I should prioritize the most.
- React
- Docker
- Test Automation
- PWA
- TensorFlow
- Meta Front-End Developer Professional Certificate
- Generative AI with Large Language Models
- Azure Certified DevOps Engineer Expert
- GCP Certified Professional Data Engineer
I'm open to suggestions and would greatly appreciate any recommendations for resources, courses, or tools to support my journey!
