Hey, my name is

Alexander Yasruddin

London-based Software Engineer

ABOUT
A junior developer who’s passionate about building user-focused software. My interests lie in software engineering, machine learning, and web development.
Currently, I’m a Computer Science graduate from Queen Mary University of London, where I built a strong foundation of information systems, from computer architecture to system design to the ethics of AI.
Previously, I’ve built my projects predominantly in Python, but I’ve recently expanded my front-end and full-stack skills through projects built with Next.js, Tailwind CSS, Prisma, Neon, and shadcn/ui. This development stems from my dissertation project at university to the passion projects I pick up to learn and practice new skills. I’ve also founded and managed my own gaming community based on the Java-coded game Minecraft, gaining hands-on experience in backend development, business finances, and managing a team.
Outside of tech, I have a creative background in music, dance, and fashion, where I earnt a Grade 8 distinction in trumpet at 14 years old and toured the south of England with the Essex Dance Theatre.
