Hello! I’m Matthew Read, a dedicated Software Engineer with a passion for backend development and procedural coding. My journey into software engineering began in high school when I discovered the thrill of solving complex problems and manipulating data to achieve functional outcomes.I specialize in crafting robust solutions using C#, C++, and Python, focusing on the efficiency and effectiveness of systems. With a Bachelor’s degree in Software Engineering from Oregon Institute of Technology and hundreds of thousands of lines of code written, I have developed a deep understanding of how to optimize and refine software processes to meet specific operational needs.As a freelance engineer on the side, I actively contribute to projects that require sophisticated data handling and system optimizations, delivering solutions that drive business success without compromising on performance.I am always eager to connect with like-minded professionals and explore opportunities to collaborate on innovative software solutions. Let’s link up and push the boundaries of what backend systems can achieve!
