About Nozomi Koborinai

I graduated from an IT technical college in March 2019, where I built my foundation in object-oriented programming with Java.

Over my 6 years of experience, the first four were spent developing electronic medical record systems using C#, teaching at Flutter University (Japan's Flutter engineering community), and co-authoring books on Flutter design patterns.

Currently, I work at a Google Cloud Partner company in Japan, specializing in Serverless Application development (Google Cloud, Firebase, DevOps, IaC, Identifier). My deep interest in software architecture has made me proficient in ensuring quality through DDD and clean architecture principles.

"Improving developer experience is at the heart of my work and brings me the greatest joy."
