During my time at AlgoUniversity as part of the Engineering team, I had the opportunity to design and launch JudgeAndSolve.me, an online platform that enables users to submit and evaluate code in various programming languages. Our main goal was to create a safe and responsive environment for thousands of learners within the AlgoU community.
Here’s what I contributed to the project:
- I designed and implemented a microservice-based judging system that uses isolated containers to ensure security and efficient communication between services, allowing for seamless code execution across multiple languages.
- I built a job queue using Redis and created a backend API with Node.js, Express, and Sequelize. This setup helped coordinate the processing of code submissions and efficiently deliver feedback to users.
- For deployment, I utilised AWS EC2 along with Docker and Nginx, ensuring everything was secured with SSL. The frontend was designed with NextJS and hosted on Vercel, and we also integrated an AI-powered review panel to provide helpful insights on users' solutions.
- I implemented secure authentication methods using JWT and OAuth2, ensuring that access control was properly managed for admins, moderators, and regular users.
- Throughout the project, I collaborated closely with my team on design and architectural decisions, focusing on scalability and reliability to ensure the platform performs well even under high demand.
This experience not only honed my technical skills but also reinforced the importance of teamwork and learning from feedback in a fast-paced environment.

As a Software Development Intern, I gained hands-on experience in Python-based web scraping using libraries like BeautifulSoup and Requests to efficiently extract data. I developed and optimized scripts for automating data transfer from Excel files to relational databases, ensuring seamless integration and query performance. I also enhanced the performance of an application by resolving multithreading and multiprocessing challenges. In addition, I refactored and modularized code for weekly payout scripts, improving readability and scalability. I also created a Python solution for automating the generation of unique initials from kitchen firm names.
