Software Engineer Intern @ Rapid7 | AI & Full-Stack Developer | Cybersecurity | Automation, Security & AI Systems

About

I'm a creative and ownership-driven Software Engineer with a strong interest in AI, cybersecurity, automation, and full-stack development. Currently at Rapid7, I work on vulnerability intelligence, building automation pipelines and LLM-based validation systems that improve accuracy and operational efficiency. My experience spans frontend and backend development, from shipping production web and mobile applications to designing AI-powered solutions and multi-agent systems. I enjoy taking ideas from concept to deployment, solving complex problems, and building technology that creates real-world impact. Beyond engineering, I've led teams, organized technical initiatives through IEEE SB VIT Pune, and thrive in environments that value curiosity, responsibility, and continuous learning.
