Gary Xia

Former investment banker turned full stack developer with a Northwestern econ degree and 500+ hours of hands-on software training. I bring a unique mix of business insight, stakeholder management, and technical ability, with proven skills in building and deploying scalable full-stack applications using React, Node.js, Python, and AWS.

My multidisciplinary background helps me bridge the gap between product and engineering, communicate effectively across teams, and deliver under pressure - key assets in fast-paced, results-oriented environments.

I’ve earned certifications in Full Stack Development, Python programming, AI/ML (Azure AI-900, AWS AI & ML Scholar), Data Analysis (IBM), and Cloud (AWS CLF-C02), prioritizing active adoption of emerging technologies.

I’m seeking junior roles and apprenticeships where I can contribute from day one while continuing to grow my technical skillset. My interests include AI integration, data pipelines, cloud-native architectures, and decentralized systems.
