I’m a full-stack developer with 1.5 years of experience building enterprise-grade applications using Java/Spring Boot, Django, and React. I focus on designing REST APIs, applying SDLC best practices, and using dependency injection and data access frameworks to deliver maintainable, production-ready systems. I enjoy turning complex operational needs into reliable software that teams can depend on.

At IIT Kanpur as a Full Stack Developer (Project Associate), I architected an Energy Management System Dashboard using Django, Spring Boot REST APIs, and PostgreSQL. I enabled real-time visualisation of power data from over 15 substations, streamlined SCADA database integration with query optimisation and indexing (cutting retrieval times by 40%), and improved monitoring responsiveness for 5 department teams. I also implemented JWT authentication and role-based access control for 50+ users, and automated deployment workflows using Docker and GitLab CI/CD to accelerate release cycles.

Previously, as an intern at SIIC Incubation Centre, IIT Kanpur, I designed and launched the Incubation Management Portal to streamline document processing for 500+ monthly submissions, cutting manual processing time by 40%. I built the NIDHI SSS Portal using Laravel and MySQL, with bulk CSV exports and advanced search, improving retrieval efficiency by 60%. I also deployed an SMTP email notification system that triggered 200+ weekly alerts, achieving an 80% response rate and reducing manual follow-ups by 70%.

I’m actively building toward scalable, real-time systems—like my PMU Dashboard —integrating Apache Kafka to handle 10,000+ messages per second and a high-performance React interface that accelerates monitoring response times by 40%. I care about operational reliability, secure access, and measurable performance improvements, as reflected in projects like Breaker Guard’s IoT monitoring and role-based permissions. I’m seeking to contribute to enterprise application development in a collaborative environment.
