What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role that fosters growth, collaboration, and innovation.

I am a passionate software engineer currently pursuing my Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science at Vellore Institute of Technology. With a strong foundation in programming languages such as C/C++, Python, and JavaScript, I have developed a keen interest in full-stack development, particularly using frameworks like React and Next.js.

During my internship at YuvaCracy Foundation, I successfully led the development of a live web platform that attracted over 3,000 monthly users. My ability to propose and implement cost-effective solutions resulted in a significant reduction in deployment and server maintenance costs. I thrive in collaborative environments, as demonstrated by my role as Co-Lead Engineer in the Rajasthan Police Hackathon, where my team secured a Top 10 finalist position out of 3,600 teams.
