What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an SDE role where I can build production-grade RESTful APIs, implement JWT authentication with RBAC and Spring Security, and deliver AI-integrated features—within a team that values clean architecture, security, and real-world impact.

I’m a Full-Stack Software Developer skilled in the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, Node.js) and Java with Spring Boot. I focus on building production-grade RESTful APIs and secure, role-aware experiences that are ready to ship.

I’ve developed MERN-style platforms with JWT authentication and role-based access control (RBAC), including multi-role flows for Admin, Recruiter, and Student users. I also integrate AI capabilities—for example, using the OpenAI API to power recruitment-focused features like AI-generated MCQs.

On the backend, I work across modern data and API tooling—PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Prisma/Mongoose, and REST API design—with containerized deployments using Docker. I’m also comfortable implementing security patterns with Spring Security, JWT authentication, and Spring Data JPA, Hibernate.

I bring research-oriented thinking from my publication on hybrid recommendation systems for digital media platforms. Whether I’m building assessment engines or recommendation-ready logic, I aim for reliable systems, clear analytics, and outcomes that help users make better decisions.
