About

About Me

I am an enthusiastic software developer based in Winnipeg, with a rich experience of over 2 years in software & product design.

Experienced VB.NET Developer with Expertise in SQL and Client Solutions

My name is Riley Coulter, and I am a seasoned software developer at a fast-growing start-up called NSD Tech. With over 2 and a half years of experience and an honours degree in computer science, my expertise currently lie in VB.NET form design and development, though I am always looking to learn new skills, and improve my existing skills. I specialize in crafting intricate SQL Server queries, collaborating directly with clients to tailor our product to their specifications, and ensuring the robustness of our software through rigorous testing and debugging processes. Additionally, I provide training and mentorship to new team members and have successfully implemented large-scale data pipelines to seamlessly integrate new client data into our products.

My Skills

I believe in the fact that learning never stops and I am interested in learning new technologies and programming languages that will help me design and develop a better output in less time.
