Backend-focused software developer working with Python, Java, SQL, and web APIs. I convert notebooks and experiments into production-grade, tested, deployable systems.
I am pursuing B.Tech Information Technology at MAIT and the BS in Data Science and Applications at IIT Madras. I like building practical backend systems, ML pipelines, developer tools, and data-driven applications that are easy to run, test, and deploy.
Coursework and IIT Madras project repositories are on my education account: github.com/23f3001694
- Backend Developer Intern experience with Django REST Framework and API migration work
- Building ML projects as production pipelines (config-driven, tested, Dockerized, CI/CD)
- Strengthening Java backend skills with Spring Boot, JPA, PostgreSQL, and JUnit
- Practicing DSA and problem solving for entry-level software engineering roles
