Hi, I'm Garrett Vernon
Full Stack Developer
About Me
I recently earned a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Franklin University and will begin the Georgia Institute of Technology OMSCS program in Artificial Intelligence in Fall 2026.
I’m an early-career software engineer focused on building scalable full-stack applications, backend systems, and cloud-integrated solutions. My experience includes Java & Spring Boot backend development, Angular frontend applications, AWS deployment, automation tooling, and cross-platform development with C#/.NET MAUI.
I’ve built and deployed production-style applications with secure REST APIs, CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, and real-time synchronization systems, with an emphasis on clean architecture and maintainable design.
Currently seeking software engineering internships and early-career software engineering opportunities where I can continue growing as an engineer while contributing to meaningful technical work.
