Badr Choubai

I’m a Moroccan-American software engineer from Aurora, Colorado. My name—Badr (بدر)—means “The Full Moon” in Arabic. In the last year, I started learning Go, developing small applications with it and continuing to grow my knowledge of Docker and Kubernetes, making the effort to study to pass the Certified Kubernetes Administrator exam.

As a young professional, I’m passionate about continuous learning and growth, and I’m excited about the opportunity to apply my skills in a new, challenging environment.
