Software Engineer
I build across the stack — production systems at 2M+ req/day, system design under real load, and networks coursework (TCP/IP, BGP/OSPF) that informs how I think about services. Shipped JobHuntOS, Wildmate, and AlgoChronicle. MS CS at 4.0, graduated Aug 2026.
Shipping code in the wild
MS CS grad (Aug 2026, 4.0 GPA) — system design, computer networks, and production AI systems at 2M+ req/day.
How I work
Full-stack development, system design, and networking — shown through work, not job titles.
At scale
Architecture · reliability · performance
At Cognizant I contributed to Spring Boot microservices at 2M+ requests/day and 99.9% uptime — optimizing a hot-path query from P99 ~250ms to ~50ms and learning what reliability under load actually requires.
End to end
UI · API · data · deploy
Wildmate, JobHuntOS, AlgoChronicle, StudyGlobal, and AgriWise — complete UIs, APIs, data models, and deploys I own. WalletGyde internship: 35% engagement ↑ and 40% faster transactions while earning my Master's.
How systems connect
TCP/IP · routing · CI/CD · cloud
MS coursework in computer networks (TCP/IP, BGP/OSPF) plus production infra work — Docker/CI at Cognizant, AlgoChronicle's push-to-publish pipeline, and thinking about how services talk, fail, and recover.
Work history
Production engineering at Cognizant, then a fintech internship during my MS — the work that sits behind the degree.

Turning GitHub commits into a self-updating coding journal
My roleSolo engineer · automation, data pipeline, and frontend
DSA practice is easy to start and hard to sustain — manual logging breaks streaks and progress gets lost across platforms.
Automated DSA tracker: push a `dayXXX_*` folder to dsa-problems, GitHub Actions syncs to Firestore, and AlgoChronicle updates with streaks, stats, and revision views.
CI/CD automation end-to-end, parsing structured READMEs in Actions, Firebase admin on Vercel, and building a product I'd actually use daily for interview prep.
Technical foundation
Honest levels — ready to deepen in production, not pretending expertise I haven't earned.
Credentials
Featured credentials across cloud, AI, and full-stack — 20 total with links to verify.
Tech notes
Short LinkedIn takes plus a longer essay on system design in the AI era — how architecture evolved, and why it still matters when I ship.
Featured essay
From monoliths to microservices to LLM-aware platforms — why system design still matters for new grads shipping real products, and how I apply it in Wildmate, JobHuntOS, and production work.
Off the field
Track, gym, and multi-sport training — the same consistency that shows up as 99.9% uptime thinking, long-running AI side projects, and finishing products end-to-end.
