Hafsa Kahiye
Application Developer
As an Application Developer, I focus on building technical tools for both internal and client use to drive digital transformation for the team. Combining technical expertise with my academic engineering background, I create custom applications, streamline workflows, and bring a methodical approach to problem-solving, fuelled by my passion for technology.
Prior to joining Mercurae, I gained valuable experience across three diverse technical roles in the legal technology sector, progressing from Support Engineer to Technical Support Team Lead to Site Reliability Engineer. During this time, I supported numerous law firms and legal clients, focusing on system reliability, custom integrations, and API implementations while leading a technical team and mentoring new team members.
Outside of work, I enjoy expanding my technical knowledge through personal projects and exploring new technologies. My tech stack includes Java, Python, JavaScript (React), and SQL, along with Azure, Azure DevOps, Terraform, containerisation (Docker, Kubernetes), API development tools (Postman, Insomnia), monitoring/analytics systems (Grafana, ElasticSearch) & Git for version control.
