hi, I'm
vanntile 👋

• Collaborated in a cross-functional team to develop customer-requested features, eliminate bugs and improve architecture of a B2B product.
• Investigated, implemented and set up the end-to-end testing environment for a credential rotation and management feature, synchronized across Microsoft Azure AD and Entra ID.
• Core team member for a machine-in-the-middle service which secures and monitors access to target databases. As part of the feature, implemented authentication for the MySQL wire protocol, validated it using a fuzzer and wrote functional tests using the Python Robot framework.
• Represented SSH in several official events and served as a guest lecturer, delivering talks to university students on topics such as cybersecurity, cryptography, CLI tools and working life.

• Using pair-programming, architected and developed a FastAPI backend application controlling ephemeral Docker containers running a machine learning model. The Tensorflow model executes anomaly detection for User and Entity Behavioral Analysis in a microservice-based application written in Go.
• Implemented watermarking in a React application displaying remote SSH and RDP connections by communicating over WebSockets to the Go backend and generating a dynamic fill using CSS.

• GPA: 4.45/5
• Thesis: Privileged access management for databases, 4/5

• GPA: 9.79/10 (top 5% of the class)
• Thesis: Customer feedback analysis in logistics, 10/10

GPA: 5/5

• Performance testing in a complex client-server application using Pub-Sub queues and multiple private blockchains operated using smart contracts.
• Collected data from a set of containers using event-driven RabbitMQ communication and analysed it using scipy in an iterative data-driven research process.

• Worked on a Vue app that scores a given website (screenshot or URL) on a set of UIX design metrics researched in the Aalto User Interfaces department. Upgraded Webpack configurations and frontend dependencies, implemented dynamic plotting of results and improved backend logging.
• Created a Figma plugin that communicates to the user a set of color palettes generated by a machine learning model that could improve their design. Implemented the UI in Preact, using TypeScript models and middleware. Written the backend application using FastAPI. Designed the data interfaces and collaborated for model integration.

• Analyzed customer post-delivery text reviews looking to discover trends and associate them with business issues.
• Implemented internationalization and managed the frontend of a SaaS web platform as part of the core development team of a startup. Worked closely with customer support and client representatives to improve the end-user experience.

• Managed a delivery tracking web application of over 50 000 orders, using AngularJS, Bootstrap, Grunt, Git versioning and proprietary REST APIs.
• Fixed interface bugs, redesigned the UI of the home dashboard, shortened the load time by removing 7 unused dependencies and added 5 new client functionalities while pushing over 75 commits.
• Reduced main app size by 20% and an order tracking page by 90% by using modern EcmaScript 6 instead of jQuery.

• Participated to GSoC as a developer for Inkscape, an open-source vector design desktop application that follows the SVG standards.
• Implemented a major UI refactoring in 20 sub-features, consisting of removing old dependencies, standardising a design pattern and propagating document state.
• Eliminated more than 12 active UX issues by rewriting the C++ dialog system in over 120 commits, 6000 lines changed and reducing code length by 10%.

• Implemented JavaScript polyfills that reproduce, in browsers, SVG functionality which exists in Inkscape but has been dropped by the SVG2 specification draft.
• Had over 60 commits in 4 feature branches over 4 months, using JavaScript and the GTK+ toolkit.
• Developed new functionality (paint servers preview dialog) as a starter point for future fill and stroke paint servers unification.

• Improved RxJS state in an Angular user-facing app of the certified Diagnosis Engine.
• Integrated dynamic translations with an existing Flask REST backend, reducing load time by 20%.
• Developed, in a team of two, over 12 iterations, an intended-use conversational workflow demo of the Etsimo service capabilities, deployed from a Node.js server with a Preact chat interface.
• Written from the bottom up a new TypeScript library that exposes Etsimo’s API for developer use, helps with type checking for JavaScript apps and has automated unit tests.

• Contributed as a technical trainer by creating resources and delivering presentations at four editions of a web-technologies workshop, based on Angular, with a total of 80 participants.
• Contributed as a designer by creating the branding, designing and implementing the website and creating the social media posts of a mentorship program for university students called Techtor.
• Contributed as a technical trainer at a mobile development workshop for 20 young children.

• Created posters and graphics for the student association events, with a reach of 3000 people and set the creative direction to a LSAC organised hackathon.
• Managed the fifth HackITAll edition, a student hackathon supported by Amazon, in the position of the Design Project Manager.
• Mentored new members and trained them through an Introduction to design workshop.

Participated twice a month as a trainer at workshops for primary-school children where we taught basic programming using online tools, mainly Scratch.
