Sohaib Shaikh

I’m a Software Engineer with internship experience building production-grade web applications and automation pipelines using Python, Flask/FastAPI, React.js, and cloud infrastructure. At Cognizant, I helped build SwiftPay—an international remittance platform—using a microservices architecture across 4+ Dockerized services, and I engineered 15+ REST API endpoints with JWT-based authentication for 100% of transaction routes.

I also built a React frontend with 10+ reusable components and real-time payment status tracking, bringing the user transaction flow to under 3 steps, and configured CI/CD across staging and production to reduce manual deployment effort by 60%. In my AI Engineering internship, I automated HR-to-document onboarding with Python, n8n, and LLM integrations (processing 50+ records) and designed webhook-driven backend pipelines that cut onboarding effort by 70%, while continuously applying agile practices, clean code, and performance-minded troubleshooting.
