Hello! I'm Arnold, a Software Engineer who studied at Massey University.
I'm focused on growing my skills and building a career in tech, with a goal of becoming a versatile Full-Stack Developer. I'm open to a range of IT roles and committed to learning new technologies. Explore my portfolio to see my work, my interests, and my passion for creating useful, well-built software.
My programming experience started from 2020 when I began my degree and finished my journey in 2022. During this time
I have learnt languages such as:
C, C#, C++, Java, Python, .NET Framework, HTML5 & CSS, JSON & XML, HASKELL, Prolog, PHP & SQL and Angular.
I have learnt and used tools such as Docker to help run a Python server for Advanced Web University assignment. I have also used
tools such as MySQL and PHPMyAdmin for Databases.
I have also spent a lot of time working with Unity and creating 2D and 3D-based games.
My journey began making a snake game with the IDE Eclipse for Java. This was
part of my Minor. Then after this, I went on to make a Space Invaders type game in the same language with a colleague.
Then finally in the second part of my Minor, we got the chance to work with the Unity Engine. First game I created in that
was a game called "Having a Kick About". This was a simple 3D game that involved two players trying to score a goal on a football pitch.
(I will hopefully be uploading this soon to Github) :)
Completed Bachelor of Information Sciences Majoring in Software
Engineering & Minor in Games Programming at Massey University.
My graduation ceremony was in May 2023.
I worked at an Alarm Specialist company for an internship at the end of 2021. I worked in the Research & Development Department.
I was challenged to work on existing problems that either had bugs that had to be resolved, or create new innovative solutions to fix an existing problem that was occurring.
This could be through the front-end or back-end.
- I worked on website development with SQL, HTML, CSS and Angular.
- Azure DevOps and Cloud Integration Control.
- New code documentation for other developers.
- I was required to work on unit testing with other colleagues to make sure that the
backend code in C# had a 99% pass rate in code coverage.
Along with my internship experiences through my degree,
I got the opportunity to work on an existing Android app that was used to scan logs at a tree management company.
This was a University summer project.
I got the chance with my colleagues to experience modifying existing code and meeting requirements that we were told by the company head.
This was a unique experience held through Massey University.
I am currently working on a Unity based project which is a conversion of Space Invanders game that I made
in Java with a colleague.
More projects on the way! Im in the process of uploading projects for GitHub to build my portfolio up.
Also, I will be constantly editing changes to my website and will implement new changes over time.
This was a project done while studying my degree. The game was built from the ground up and made in Java with the IDE Eclipse. This was my first ever game! Project is now uploaded online for all to see on my GitHub! Press that button below!

This project was based on one of my university assignments. This has been edited and changed to suit GitHub. The project is library application that contains Books, Movies and Journals. Main focus of this application is using "Object Oriented Programmming" design and implementation.

Very simple project this one. It was a small assignment task for one of my job interviews. Simply had to use Java and make a GET request where we can read the data into the application.

Yes, it has a similar name to my other game. Its about a new thriller unique experience based from the idea of "Space Invaders". We are recreating our Java based game into the Unity Engine and then we will release as a full game to Steam.
Coming soon...
