Backend Developer at IFCI Limited who manages government portals processing over Rs. 1,000 crore in claims.

At IFCI Limited, I develop and maintain live Government of India portals, including the PLI Bulk Drugs and PLI Medical Devices portals. Their digital workflows support the processing of over Rs. 1,000 crore in incentive claims.

I also developed the SPECS Portal in Laravel and led, with one other developer, the migration of IFCI’s public website from a legacy Drupal and CodeIgniter setup to a Django and React JS platform on PostgreSQL.

Across these systems, I’ve implemented REST APIs with JWT authentication and security controls including 2FA and RBAC. I’ve also optimized PostgreSQL reporting, improving report generation time by 40% on datasets of more than 2 million records.
