Hi! I'm Tal.
Hello!

My name is Tal Zaloilov, and I'm a '24 SFU Software Systems student and software developer from Greater Vancouver, Canada. Through my studies in university, I have gained a solid understanding of the mathematical, data driven side of software development, and my multiple internships and many projects have helped me develop a wide range of programming abilities.
I'm currently working on backend development of SidecarDev with a couple friends.

I'm open to Fall 2023 SWE Intern opportunities, so please don't hesitate to reach out!
