Mohd Kashif
@mohdkashif2
Full-stack web developer crafting React/Node apps with real-time features and secure APIs.
What I'm looking for
I build full-stack web applications that combine clean UX with secure, scalable backend services. My work focuses on React/Next.js frontends, Node.js/Express backends, and practical APIs that users actually feel.
In PlayNearby, I delivered a location-aware experience using the MERN stack, including real-time team chat and private messaging with Socket.IO (WebSockets). I also integrated Leaflet.js for map visualization and geospatial querying, then secured everything with JWT authentication supporting Google OAuth.
In RecipeSuggestionApp and Back2Campus, I emphasized maintainable design and reliable authentication by implementing JWT-based flows with cookies. I deployed projects across Vercel (frontend) and Render (backend), and used AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude) to accelerate development and unblock technical issues.
I’m an active competitor and problem-solver with 700+ DSA solutions across LeetCode and Codeforces, plus a Global Rank 1864 in CodeChef Starters 221. Alongside building products, I contribute through IEEE JMI/SoarX JMI involvement, learning to collaborate under deadlines like SIH-2024.
