What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a Software Development Engineer role where I can build clean, reliable backend and full-stack systems, contribute to mission-critical software, and grow through Agile SDLC practices, mentorship, and collaborative engineering work.

I've built backend services and full-stack applications using Java, Spring MVC, ReactJS, REST APIs, MySQL, and PostgreSQL.

As an Open Source Contributor with GirlScript Summer of Code, I implemented features and resolved bugs in real-world projects using Java, Python, and RESTful APIs. I improved backend reliability through systematic debugging, unit testing, pull requests, branching, and collaboration with remote contributors.

I designed a university chatbot platform that handled 100+ daily queries, with validated inputs, secure request flows, structured logging, MySQL indexing, and third-party messaging integrations.

I've also built a website vulnerability scanner for SQL injection and XSS detection, plus a multithreaded Java file encryptor that achieved a 30% performance improvement through efficient thread management. I'm eager to write clean, reliable code for mission-critical systems using Agile SDLC practices.
