About Me
Growing up in a home where both my parents were software engineers, I was surrounded by logic, creativity, and debugging long before I wrote my first line of code. Their passion for problem-solving felt magical to me.
That spark grew even brighter thanks to a childhood friend who was an enthusiastic techie. Together we built small but exciting projects — the most memorable being a simple school inventory management system. Seeing something we built actually work became the moment I knew I wanted to pursue computer science seriously.
Today, I work across the stack as a Full-Stack Developer, Cloud Engineer, Software Engineer, Backend Developer, AI/ML Engineer, and Data Engineer. What excites me most is turning complex ideas into elegant, scalable systems — finding solutions that are simple, reliable, and maintainable.
Passion for Cloud Engineering: I’m especially passionate about architecting scalable cloud systems. I enjoy designing serverless workflows, optimizing performance, and building reliable backend services that can handle real-world, high-volume use cases efficiently and securely.
Outside of programming, I enjoy going to the gym, playing football, and cooking. These passions keep me grounded, creative, and energized — qualities I bring back into every project I work on.
My Experience
Work
GemHeathcare
Halifax NS
As a Software Developer at GEM Health Care Group, I work with a modern tech stack including Django, Vue.js, MySQL, and REST APIs to build digital solutions used across multiple long-term care facilities in Nova Scotia. My primary responsibility is digitizing and automating clinical workflows that were previously paper-based, enabling nurses and healthcare staff to work more efficiently, accurately, and safely.
2 Sep 2025Zoho Corporation
Chennai, Tamil Nadu
I worked as a Full Stack Developer at Zoho Corporation, where I built and optimized key healthcare HRM and patient-management features aimed at reducing the administrative workload on doctors and nurses and digitizing hospital operations. Using Spring Boot, Angular, MySQL, AWS, GitHub Actions, and REST APIs, I developed a digital Token Booking System that improved front-desk workflow efficiency by 40%, and a complete Patient Appointment Booking module that reduced scheduling conflicts by 30%. I also integrated WhatsApp automated notifications, which decreased patient no-shows by 25% and significantly improved communication. To support performance and scalability, I optimized MySQL schemas and queries, improving critical API response times by 35%, and designed clean, component-driven Angular interfaces for better usability. I leveraged AWS services such as Lambda, SNS, and SQS for automation and asynchronous messaging, and built CI/CD pipelines with AWS CodePipeline and GitHub Actions, accelerating deployment cycles and enabling smoother feature releases. Throughout the project, I collaborated with clinicians, QA engineers, and product managers to translate paper-based workflows into scalable digital systems that improved operational efficiency, patient experience, and overall service delivery.
Sep 2022 - June 2024Mindtree Limited
Chennai, India
As a Software Engineer Intern at Mindtree Limited, I contributed to enterprise-grade application development and maintenance projects using Java, REST APIs, and SQL. I assisted in building modular backend components, optimizing existing codebases, and improving API reliability across large-scale systems. I collaborated with senior engineers on integration and testing efforts involving enterprise application services, ensuring smooth communication between distributed services. I also supported defect resolution, performance tuning, and documentation activities across agile sprints, gaining hands-on experience in software engineering best practices within a fast-paced enterprise environment.
April 2022 - Aug 2022Education
Master of Applied Computer Science
Dalhousie University, Canada
Recently completed my Master’s degree with a CGPA of 3.8/4.30. Alongside coursework, I worked as a TA and marker, where I supported student learning in areas such as web development, digital transformation, and algorithms. My academic journey has deepened my expertise in cloud computing, AI, and applied software engineering.
Sep 2024 – Dec 2025Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Science
Anna University, India
I completed my undergraduate degree with first class distinction, achieving a CGPA of 9.06/10. My studies gave me a strong foundation in computer science, data structures, object-oriented programming, and software engineering principles.
