## About

I am a Software Engineer at TraceLink, specializing in Fullstack Development with a deep\-rooted passion for Backend architecture\. My approach to engineering is simple: build systems that are as scalable as they are performant\. My technical foundation was forged in competitive programming, where I achieved a Specialist rating on Codeforces\. This background, combined with winning the Smart India Hackathon \(SIH\) 2022, has conditioned me to think critically under pressure and find the most optimized solutions to any bottleneck\. What I bring to the table: • Backend Expertise: Crafting robust APIs and microservices using Node\.js and TypeScript\. • Fullstack Versatility: Building seamless user interfaces with React\.js while ensuring tight integration with the backend\. • Algorithmic Thinking: Applying data structures and algorithmic efficiency to real\-world production environments\. • Fast Adaptability: A proven track record of picking up new frameworks and delivering high\-quality code in fast\-paced IT environments\.
