What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an opportunity to build production-ready backend services, collaborate with frontend teams, and ship secure features, while growing my skills in REST APIs and applied machine learning.

I’m a Computer Science and Engineering student (B.Tech, expected May 2026) focused on backend development and building reliable web services. I work with tools like Node.js, Express.js, and MongoDB, aiming to deliver secure, production-ready features.

In my internship roles, I developed and integrated RESTful APIs and authentication flows, including JWT-based login and admin/product operations. I also collaborated with frontend developers to optimize performance and ship complete functionality for real applications.

My projects reflect this same drive: I built a full-stack e-commerce platform with authentication, admin dashboard features, and Multer image uploads, and I developed ML-powered apps like a BERT-based disaster tweet classifier and a real-time invisibility cloak using OpenCV.
