Hi, I'm a full stack engineer building scalable and faster web applications.

What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a healthy and interesting work environment e to deepen expertise in distributed systems & cutting-edge tech. I aim to contribute to impactful projects, grow leadership by mentoring, and collaborate with diverse teams that foster continuous learning. I seek ownership, technical vision contribution, and evolution as a senior engineering leader.

I'm Darshana Khichi, a passionate and experienced Full-Stack Developer with over 8 years of experience in the IT industry, specializing in the JavaScript ecosystem. My career began with a strong foundation in front-end development, utilizing technologies like AngularJS and Cordova, before I strategically pivoted to become a highly proficient Full Stack Developer in recent years.

I excel in architecting and developing robust, scalable solutions. My core expertise lies in Node.js and TypeScript, and I have extensive hands-on experience leveraging frameworks such as NestJS for building efficient microservices architectures. I'm adept at working with diverse databases, including PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, SQLite, SQL, Firebase, and AWS S3, ensuring optimal data management and retrieval. My technical toolkit also includes proficiency with GraphQL, Docker, and Monorepos for streamlined development and deployment.

Beyond my strong coding capabilities, I bring valuable leadership and project management experience. In my most recent role, I successfully led a critical module, contributing significantly to the GraphQL layer of a large-scale enterprise application. I actively engaged in technical documentation and collaborated directly with stakeholders and product managers to translate complex requirements into technical solutions, demonstrating my holistic approach to project delivery.

I'm deeply interested in building high-performance, resilient systems and am constantly exploring new architectural patterns in distributed systems. I am passionate about clean code, best practices for scalability, and optimizing application performance.
