What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can build backend-first products with Python/REST, apply ML/AI to real problems, and ship reliable features through testing and CI/CD—while contributing to open source and learning fast with strong engineering ownership.

I’m a software developer building practical AI-powered systems with strong fundamentals in APIs, integration, and reliability. As an Open Source Contributor, I work on a Rust-based bioinformatics workflow engine and WDL toolchain, delivering PRs across parsing, terminology refactors, and CLI/LSP behavior.

I’ve also authored a merged openwisp-controller change (#1220) and improved test stability by replacing deprecated browser-alert handling with WebDriver BiDi (unhandledPromptBehavior: ignore) for Chromium v126+—closing issue #902.

In my Software Dev Intern role, I built a real-time security monitoring dashboard with live attack analytics using Python and REST API endpoints, then developed an AI-powered forensic log analysis assistant by integrating internal services via API-driven pipelines. I deployed the end-to-end solution on GCP with CI/CD, and I’m equally energized by applied prototypes—like cutting classroom attendance marking time by 70% using YOLOv5 face recognition plus speech-driven workflows, and creating an LLaVA/Llama3-based career guidance app with modular Flask architecture.
