What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a full-stack role where I can ship production-grade REST APIs and real-time WebSocket features, collaborate on system design, and keep learning—while bringing a teaching mindset to improve product quality and developer experience.

I’m a Full-stack Software Engineer and B.Tech Robotics Technology student with production-grade experience in REST APIs, real-time WebSocket services, and MERN-stack applications. I’ve contributed to open source through Google Summer of Code by redesigning a forum module into a REST API-first architecture and building a low-latency WebSocket service enabling sub-100ms synchronization for thousands of concurrent users.

I also teach and build with real impact: I’m a DataCamp Instructor (250+ learners, 4.65/5 rating) and I’ve authored project-based ML content on movie-similarity detection and a reinforcement learning tutorial on Q-learning. Between my DSA, System Design, and OOP foundation and my hands-on work with React, Node.js/Express, and modern ML libraries, I bring both engineering rigor and a community-minded, learning-first approach.
