Hello! Team,
My name is Amowe Sunday Alexander, I’m a Computer Science (major) student at Adekunle Ajasin University Akungba, (AAUA) Akoko, Ondo State, Nigeria. Am currently in my fourth year, with interest in server side programming (using java, php and node.js) and I love solving challenging problems in various areas and I’m always ready to learn new concept and technology for solving problems.
I have few experience in developing android application using Java, I also partake in few programming contest (such as CodeChef Snack Down 2017, Google Hash Code 2018 and some other local programming contest) using the Java programing language, some of my solutions to this competitions can be found on my personal github repo (https://github.com/sunnyblaze/CodeChef, https://github.com/sunnyblaze/Competitive-Programming), I am currently working on a project called “AAUA ASSISTANT” for my institution and I currently have few personal android and desktop project that I’m working on using Java.
I have also partaken in some freelancing job (such as web designing using PHP, SQL, JavaScript, HTML and CSS) one of my most recent freelance job is www.ismailautomobile.com.ng.
And I am currently a member of Google Developers Group (GDG) AAUA Chapter, where I was opportune to partake in almost all their project both android and web. I also have professional certificate in website design from MAGNATE MUSCLE LIMITED, Nigeria.

Why I’m interested in the Jenkins project:
After several months of research on Jenkins project, I was able to understood that Jenkins is a server application written purely in java that runs in java servlet just as apache tomcat and the likes. Jenkins has various plugins that extend its use to projects written in other languages,
Jenkins is a Continuous Integration server, basically you can run your tests on a non-developer machine automatically everytime someone pushes new code into the source repository. With Jenkins, organizations can accelerate the software development process through automation. Jenkins integrates development life-cycle processes of all kinds, including build, document, test, package, stage, deploy, static analysis and much more. Most importantly Jenkins has given a lot to the community of developers including myself by being an open source. In my little way of showing appreciation I love to contribute to the Jenkins project by writing plugins for the Jenkins project.
With my knowledge of computer networking and few experience in Java SE(8 and 9) Jenkins project is the perfect suite for me to actualize my childhood dream of being a software engineer (server-side).
Interested Project Idea
“Jenkins Remoting over Message Bus/Queue” This will enable me to apply my knowledge into solving real life problem and also give back to the Jenkins community
