This is my first project after graduation, in which I was led by great mentors and learned many things that leads me to DevOps domain.

I had a part-time job here - a young start-up - as a R&D engineering until my graduation. My resposibilities included:

• Developing software for health-care solution for Vietnam hospitals
• Managing infrastructure (hardware servers)
• On-site installation at rural hospitals.
• Investigating and building demo system on Openstack and OpenShift cloud platform.

I mainly use Java for the products, beside a little JavaScript, HTML, CSS for web development.

I experienced my internship period here as a R&D engineer. My focus was compiling the integrated systems for IoT with Wifi and Zigbee.

This was the first time I use Linux and love it, learn how to compile modules using gcc, make and run my very first “Hello-world” Linux app.
