About Me!
I'm a Software Developer and final year undergraduate student at the Indian Institute of Information Technology Vadodara. Driven by a passion for engineering, I spend my days (and often nights!) crafting scalable and robust software solutions. I'm constantly on the lookout for new technologies to explore and integrate into my projects.
My passion for technology extends beyond software. As an electronics hobbyist, I tinker with microcontrollers and IoT projects. This hands-on experience fuels my curiosity for understanding systems, from hardware to software. Building things from scratch grants me a deeper understanding, allowing a holistic approach to software development, ensuring efficient solutions.
Experience
My experience at Zodica Astro Private Limited played a vital role in shaping my understanding of building user-centric backend solutions at scale. As a Backend Developer, I had the privilege of contributing significantly to their core product, "Star Astro", which boasts over 8 lakh active users. I independently engineered, developed, and deployed the entire backend for this platform, showcasing my ability to work autonomously on a large-scale project.
My contributions encompassed a diverse range of functionalities. I seamlessly integrated various Large Language Model (LLM) models to provide users with insightful answers based on their birth data and natal charts. Additionally, I built core functionalities for user birth chart creation and management, enhancing user engagement. To facilitate smooth transactions, I implemented integrations with various payment gateways. Furthermore, I designed and implemented a unified promo code and discount system to optimize user acquisition and retention strategies. One of my most impactful contributions was the creation of a geocoder service capable of translating over 1.5 million locations into longitude and latitude coordinates. This innovative feature not only improved user experience with search-as-you-type functionality but also generated significant cost savings for the company, exceeding $500 per month.
During my internship at Levitation Infotech, I gained valuable experience independently engineering and developming backends for three diverse projects.
In my first project, I streamlined backend operations for a pharmacy sector platform by building an E-commerce system alongside a distributed inventory management solution. This ensured efficient management of pharmaceutical products across various locations.
For my second project, I developed a secure and scalable backend for a FinTech product with multi-stakeholder Hierarchical role based access control. This project demanded a high level of attention to detail, as it involved features like remittance processing, payroll management, and KYC verification. Additionally, I ensured seamless integration with third-party services like Zoho Sign, Google Sheets, and Signzy, etc.
My final project at Levitation Infotech involved engineering a customized backend system for a blue-collar recruitment firm. This system essentially functioned as a tailored ERP solution, designed to meet their specific needs and workflow. This experience provided me with valuable insights into building software solutions that cater to specific industry requirements.
