About

I am a dedicated software engineer with a strong educational background, having completed my B.Tech from the Indian Institute of Information Technology (IIIT) Guwahati. Currently, I am working full-time at Tekion as an Associate Software Engineer, a role I've held for the past six months. My primary focus at Tekion is within the machine learning team, where I am deeply involved in productionizing machine learning products. In terms of technical skills, I am proficient in a range of technologies. My work primarily revolves around Flask and FastAPI in Python, and Spring Boot in Java. Additionally, my tech stack includes Kafka, Elasticsearch, MongoDB, and Postgres, demonstrating my versatility and adaptability in the field of software engineering. My experience extends beyond my current role at Tekion. I have accumulated nine months of internship experience, which includes a three-month tenure as an Android Developer at Powerplay, a SaaS product company in the construction industry. This experience, coupled with my six months at Tekion, has equipped me with practical skills and insights into various aspects of software development. One of my strongest attributes is my problem-solving ability, as demonstrated by my coding profiles. I am proud to have achieved a rating of 2199 (Guardian Badge) on Leetcode, placing me in the top 1% of users globally. I've solved over 800 problems on this platform. Additionally, on Codechef, my max rating is 2123 (5 star), placing me in the top 0.7% in India, and on Codeforces, I hold a rating of 1742 (Expert), ranking in the top 1.5% in India. In terms of achievements, I have qualified for the ACM ICPC Regionals in both 2020 and 2021, achieving ranks of 17th in the Gwalior-Pune regionals and 49th in the Amritapuri regionals out of 5,000 teams. Furthermore, I secured an All India Rank of 15th and a Global rank of 254th in the Google Hash Code 2022, with over 10,000 participants. Additionally, I achieved a Global Rank of 228th and an India Rank of 98th out of more than 5,000 participants in the Google Kickstart Round H 2022. These accomplishments reflect my dedication and skill in the field of competitive coding and software engineering.
