About

I build production-grade web systems that run in live industrial environments — not side projects. For the past 2 years, I have been working as a Full Stack Developer at IIT Kanpur's Energy and SCADA Division, where I architect dashboards, data pipelines, and REST APIs that engineers depend on daily. My current system monitors 15+ electrical substations with 99.9% uptime, and I reduced SCADA data retrieval times by 40% through Redis caching and composite indexing. Here is what I have shipped: → Energy Management System — real-time Django + PostgreSQL dashboard for IIT Kanpur's power infrastructure, serving 50+ users across 5 departments → PMU Dashboard — Apache Kafka pipeline streaming 10,000+ messages/second with a React frontend for live power-grid monitoring across 50+ devices → Breaker Guard — Django operations dashboard for UPPCL managing outage workflows, IoT device monitoring, OTP-based field verification, and OTA firmware updates for ESP32 devices → GREET Research Platform — full Django portal for IIT Kanpur's EV initiative with a 30-question survey system, role-based admin, and automated reporting → Incubation Management Portal — Laravel-based lifecycle system handling 500+ monthly submissions at SIIC IIT Kanpur I work daily with Django, React.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, Apache Kafka, Docker, FastAPI, Spring Boot, and GitLab CI/CD. I qualified GATE CSE 2026 and hold certifications from Meta, HackerRank, and Infosys. I am open to Full Stack Developer and Backend Developer roles — full-time or remote.
