LOKKU PRAVEEN
@lokkupraveen
Founder and AI/Backend developer building NLP-driven platforms for real-world student opportunities.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Founder building an AI-powered student–industry collaboration platform, focusing on turning real-world project needs into scalable experiences for universities and companies. I lead backend architecture and product design, with an emphasis on practical outcomes and performance.
Through Stujya, I built backend services using Django and PostgreSQL to support project management and collaboration workflows. I also shaped the platform’s overall architecture, business model, and UX as the founding developer.
I develop AI products that automate complex workflows—like an AI resume–job matching system that uses NLP to extract skills, compare them with job descriptions, and process high-volume resumes with low latency. I’ve also built an AI smart interview simulator that generates role- and company-based questions and delivers real-time feedback using facial emotion detection.
On the engineering side, I enjoy clean APIs, scalable service design, and fast user experiences—whether it’s integrating AI services via OpenAI/Gemini, building responsive UIs with React, or connecting frontend and backend through reliable REST APIs. I’m excited to apply this mix of AI, backend engineering, and product thinking to impactful teams.
