What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build production-ready backend and distributed systems, own end-to-end features, and collaborate in teams that value rigorous testing, security, and measurable performance.

I’m a Software Development Engineer Intern focused on building production-grade systems that are fast, reliable, and easy to maintain. I’ve worked on backend modernization and end-to-end platform features, with a strong bias toward measurable performance and correctness.

At Hindustan Petroleum Co. Ltd. (HPCL), I developed a highly available backend for the Allied Retail Portal, replacing legacy workflow structures with a modular Spring Boot architecture to achieve sub-second execution latency across 500+ national retail outlets. I also engineered dynamic multi-level approval workflows and an optimized bridge-table layer to decouple agreements from physical spaces, aiming for zero-conflict mappings and deterministic allocations.

I take quality seriously: I implemented end-to-end system auditability using Java and the MinIO S3 API, building rigorous integration test suites with near-total code coverage to prevent critical regressions before production staging. On the product side, I architected a full-stack recruitment gateway in Next.js and Java Spring Boot, including secure session-based state machines, role-based access tokens, and sub-second real-time status telemetry.

I also enjoy complex technical challenges beyond core web development. In Inspector Clouseau, I built an event-driven computer vision pipeline using OpenCV, TensorFlow, and YOLOv5 for automated face recognition, pose metrics, and real-time anomaly detection, including automated incident classification and secure SMTP alerting with facial anonymization filters for client data privacy.
