Summary
Duncan Mcdonald is a Jr. Software Developer and third-year Computer Science co-op at Brock University with hands-on experience at Cognition+, where he progressed from co-op to part-time developer working on web features, bug fixes, and database tasks using Angular, Java, Oracle SQL, and MyBatis. He brings a practical, self-taught coding mindset—comfortable learning by example—and has already contributed to production workflows and code reviews in a professional environment. Based in Thorold, Ontario, he balances technical curiosity with community-building, organizing weekly tabletop game nights and running a DnD group that hone his teamwork and facilitation skills. Eager to expand his experience, he’s actively seeking a new co-op opportunity for May–August to broaden his software engineering exposure.
