FULL-STACK SOFTWARE ENGINEER

Dylan Flaum

About

Hi my name is Dylan Flaum. I graduated from the University of Florida with a major in Computer Science, a minor in Sales Engineering, and UF's Artificial Intelligence Certification.I currently work as a Full Stack Developer at a startup called Spark Rewards, where my day-to-day can vary from translating Figma designs into responsive front-end pages, to configuring APIs on the backend, to managing our AWS infrastructure. I’m passionate about exploring emerging technologies, especially in artificial intelligence and automation, and I really enjoy applying those tools to build efficient, user-focused systems.I’m excited to bring that same curiosity and problem-solving mindset to a larger engineering team where I can continue to grow and make an impact.
