Yahir Flores

Computer Science @ Cal Poly San Luis Obispo
Backend Engineering · Full-Stack Development · Class of 2028


About Me

I'm a Computer Science student with a concentration in Data Engineering, focused on backend software engineering and building reliable systems. I'm especially interested in financial markets and the infrastructure, APIs, and data systems that support them.

I enjoy working through the details that make software dependable, including validation, edge-case handling, database design, REST APIs, and automated testing. Through coursework, internship experience, and collaborative projects, I've built applications using Java, Python, Spring Boot, Flask, React, SQL, and third-party APIs.

Outside of tech, I train Muay Thai, teach kickboxing, and stay active through running, swimming, mountain biking, and rock climbing.
