Aspiring full-stack developer building scalable web apps and REST APIs with Node.js, React, FastAPI, and PostgreSQL.
What I'm looking for
I’m an aspiring full stack developer focused on building scalable web applications and production-ready RESTful APIs. I bring a strong backend foundation with Python (FastAPI) and PostgreSQL, and I care deeply about API design, clean architecture, and efficient data handling.
In my Software Development Intern role at Skillcraft Technology, I built reusable frontend components with React to improve UI performance and maintainability. I also integrated and tested RESTful APIs, contributed to cross-cutting debugging and performance optimization, and automated operational workflows to reduce manual effort by 30%.
Through open source work with GirlScript Summer of Code, I’ve resolved production issues and improved feature performance—optimizing Elasticsearch queries to boost search performance by 20%. I’ve also built projects like DentWise (SaaS dental appointment platform), INVOICE AI (invoice management with AI-based logic), and Raahi (real-time ride booking with Google Maps API), where I implemented secure authentication, modular backend services, and scalable service-oriented logic.
