On your intro you say - "I am currently seeking a position at a company to grow and expand my abilities."

I'd personally adjust to "I am currently seeking a position at a company where I can contribute with my x, y, z skills while I learn and grow from other developers."

It's always good to say explicitly what you are offering the organization.

You are building your own system, so it will be solid stable
Pacman and AUR,

Infamous archwiki,

In so many ways, reading can make you a better Software Developer, and these suggestions are heading to the top of the list, for sure. Thanks for choosing our next reads, @eljayadobe!
