Work experience

Software Engineer at Lenskart.com, Feb 2026 - Present · 7 mos, Gurugram, Haryana, India, I gained hands-on experience working in a large-scale product-based engineering environment. I was exposed to real-world software development workflows and contributed to backend-related development tasks involving API integration, debugging, and feature enhancement. I worked closely in an agile team environment, participating in iterative development cycles, understanding requirement breakdown, and collaborating with engineers during implementation and review processes. This experience helped me understand how production systems are built, maintained, and scaled in real time. Alongside development work, I strengthened my understanding of software engineering fundamentals such as clean code practices, modular design, and writing maintainable and efficient solutions. I also improved my debugging and problem-solving skills by working on practical issues in a live system. A key part of my learning during this internship was applying Data Structures and Algorithms concepts in real engineering scenarios. Working in C++, I became more confident in translating theoretical DSA knowledge into practical problem-solving approaches, which improved my coding efficiency and logical thinking. This internship also helped me build better system thinking and introduced me to how backend components interact within a larger architecture. I gained exposure to writing production-aware code, understanding edge cases, and improving performance considerations. Overall, this experience has significantly improved my confidence as a developer and strengthened my foundation in backend development, C++, and problem-solving. It also helped me understand how engineering teams operate in fast-paced, real-world product environments and has motivated me to continue improving my skills in software development and system design.
