## About

I build full\-stack and AI\-powered applications end to end — not for class assignments, but because I wanted to see if the idea would actually work\. SmartShop, an AI shopping assistant for visually impaired users, started as a question: could I get object detection and OCR fast enough to feel real\-time? I built the pipeline from scratch \(Python, FastAPI, YOLOv8, Tesseract\), debugged it solo through edge cases like poor lighting and partial occlusion, and got it to sub\-second latency with a voice\-first interface\. Costra is a cloud cost optimizer — FastAPI \+ React, live AWS Pricing API integration, a rule\-based recommendation engine, and stateless auth via Firebase/JWT\. CardBenefits\+, built with two teammates, uses Gemini to help users discover credit card benefits they're not using — full stack, from PostgreSQL up through the UI\. I'm a final\-year CS student at Siddaganga Institute of Technology \(CGPA 9\.03, graduating July 2027\), and I've paired that with a JPMorgan Chase Software Engineering Virtual Experience to get a feel for structured, test\-driven backend workflows\. What I'm looking for: a remote SDE or full\-stack internship where I can work on something with real users and real constraints — not another isolated assignment\. I lean toward backend and systems work, but I'll go wherever the interesting problems are\. If you're building something and need someone who'll actually dig into the edge cases instead of stopping at "it works on my machine" — let's talk\.
