What I'm looking for

I seek backend or full-stack roles focused on scalable systems, hands-on engineering, cloud-native practices, and opportunities to grow in AI-integrated web products.

I am a passionate backend developer with hands-on experience building web applications and AI-driven tools using Node.js, Python, Express, Flask, and PostgreSQL. I designed and developed the LDCE Placement Cell backend with JWT-based role access, and I built full-stack projects including a Spotify-like streaming app and an open-source code-snippet sharing platform.

I continuously expand my skills through internships and certifications such as DeepLearning.AI's ML Specialization and cloud fundamentals on Coursera, and I enjoy working at the intersection of backend engineering and operations to deliver scalable, secure systems.
