About

Hello, I'm Zakatell Kanda

I'm a Software Engineer with a passion for technology, problem-solving, and continuous learning. I currently live in Barcelona, where I enjoy both the vibrant tech scene and the rich cultural experiences this beautiful city offers.

Professional Background

My journey in software development has led me through various technologies and frameworks. I'm particularly experienced with:

  • Languages: Go, Python, JS, TypeScript
  • Web Development: Django, FastAPI, Go, React
  • Cloud & DevOps: Kubernetes, AWS, Docker
  • Databases: PostgreSQL

I believe in understanding problems deeply before diving into solutions - a methodology that has served me well throughout my career. When approaching new features or bugs, I focus on breaking them down into manageable steps and creating fast feedback loops through testing.

Personal Interests

Outside of coding, I enjoy:

  • Dancing - It's become a significant part of my life and a wonderful way to connect with people
  • Travel - Experiencing new cultures and environments keeps me inspired
  • Learning - Whether it's a new programming language or a different skill entirely, I'm always curious

Philosophy

I believe in reaching out and making connections, even when it feels uncomfortable. Some of my most valued friendships and collaborations began with simply overcoming my hesitation and saying hello.

As I often remind myself: on the other side of discomfort often lies connection, growth, and unexpected adventures.
