  Worked within the Base Inventory Warehouse Management Services (BIWMS) project within the UK Ministry of Defence’s Support Chain Information Services programme.

Being a software developer improved my technical skills such as Java programming and SQL. I have also gained knowledge and experience in the different technologies used for implementation. My secondary role was a software tester responsible for undertaking validation and verification activities. These included executing system test cases to identify bugs and defects and supporting the developers. Being a software tester increased my knowledge in the business processes and enabled me to think from a tester’s point of view. Working with other software developers and testers have enriched my problem solving skills and team working skills, when devising solutions for identified bugs and defects. Communicating to staff members with different background knowledge has improved my communication skills. Also prioritising different tasks assigned to me has developed my time management skills.
