What I'm looking for

I’m a backend developer specializing in building scalable, efficient systems with expertise in Python, Django, AWS, and PostgreSQL. I focus on writing clean, maintainable code and optimizing system performance. Passionate about learning new technologies and collaborating in fast-paced environments to develop impactful software solutions.

I’m Kushal Gupta, a backend engineer passionate about building robust, scalable systems that solve real-world problems. My experience spans interning at ViewSend ICT (Tokyo) and CodeUp (India), where I refactored legacy systems, improved code maintainability by 40%, and built REST APIs handling 1K+ daily requests. I thrive on optimizing performance—reducing API response times by 60% with Redis caching and ensuring 99.9% uptime using Docker, AWS, and CI/CD pipelines.

I love mentoring and leading, having grown a tech club from 5 to 150+ members and fostering a collaborative coding culture. As a competitive programmer (LeetCode 1750+, CodeChef Top 30%), I enjoy solving challenging problems and continuously learning new technologies. I’m especially interested in startups and teams that value initiative, modern backend architecture, and team-driven growth. Let’s build the future together!
