Hello 👋, I'm Mayra Navarro. Currently Software Developer at BUK, Tech Leader at WNB.rb, community organizer member of Ruby Peru and former Javascript Fundamentals Teacher at Pre-Codeable.
I'm looking to collaborate 👯 in companies that can allow me to access to training and development programs, give me opportunities to work on challenging projects, offer a supportive and collaborative work environment and keep a culture of innovation and creativity.
I learned about coding from Codeable an intensive bootcamp, where I learned backend programming with Ruby and Ruby on Rails, and Frontend with Javascript, React, CSS, HTML.
As a software developer, I did my intership at Able.co. For our client SimCase, we built two projects on their educational game platform for Wharton University.
My first full-time job was for the presidential cabinet of Perú(Government of Peru), there I was able to develop for various projects focused on citizen service: Book of Claims, Registry of citizen complaints and the Unique digital platform of the Peruvian government - gob.pe . Of which within three and eight months I became the technical leader of the first two mentioned.
My next full-time job was for Target Test Prep, I updated several old pages based on new designs, semantic HTML and current web programming practices. Successfully integrated Recurly API into the platform, enabling seamless subscription management and billing. Implemented custom subscription plans and discounts, using Recurly API to optimize customer acquisition and retention. Also, I updated the project's tests, increased its coverage percentage to 60%, improved the SEO and accessibility of 80% of its public pages.
Currently at buk, I'm part of the Platorm team, responsible for maintaining, supporting and evolving transversal components/functionalities within the Buk platform.(It's
I have had the opportunity to work in multiple business models, from managing donations for international non-governmental organizations, large consumer goods companies, government organizations, storage and logistics management of medicines, wholesale distribution of basic necessities, educational platforms, even open source libraries.
From my first job as a Help Desk, at the International Potato Center, I discovered how much I enjoy helping people with their problems, and having a customer service attitude. As a SAP Basis consultant, I learned the culture of working in service companies, managing roles and managing servers as a client. Working in more structured companies such as IBM, (in Managed Infrastructure Services), allowed me to work with large companies and solve their problems and requirements with a plus due to my experience in customer service and previous experiences. As Project Manager for Salutare I was involved in the project of: the platform for the admission and delivery of medicines to the patient in hospitals (Sigah). I was able to manage the administration of deliverables and their fulfillment, the agreements with the stakeholders and the management of the goals together with the legal area for the management of the contracts, as well as monitoring the use of medicines in several national hospitals for Essalud.
