Experience

Headstarter AI | Jul. 2024 - present

I am currently part of Headstarter's SWE fellowship; working on multiple projects, both solo and in teams, ranging from a Personal Portfolio Website to a full-fledged FYP Manager Application. I am mainly involved in the frontend development of projects, implementing clean and modern design. Employing technologies and frameworks such as HTML, CSS, Tailwind, JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Next.js, Redux, and ShadcnUI.

The Sparks Foundation | Jul. 2024

Designed and developed web pages applying modern technologies such as Reactjs, Nextjs, TailwindCSS and ShadcnUI. My main project was developing a banking application.

DPL | Jun. 2024

Worked with a supervisor to develop DataHub, a file management system that utilizes modern tech stacks and securely stores the users data using AWS.
- Utilized MERN stack for development, including React, Typescript, and TailwindCSS for the frontend, Node and Express for backend, and MongoDB for the database. Files were handled securely using AWS S3, and JWT was used for token-based authentication.
- Learned modern deployment methods: frontend was deployed on vercel, backend on heroku, and database on MongoDB Atlas.

CodSoft | Aug. 2023

Completed 3 tasks on Web Development with HTML, CSS, and JS.
- Task 1: A personal portfolio site, showcasing all my skills, projects, and resume.
- Task 2: To-do list site, allowing users to add, delete, and edit their tasks. The tasks are stored and fetched from the backend.
- Task 3: Calculator, with an interactive interface for buttons, utilizing CSS grid layout. Event listeners, statements, operators, and loops were used to handle user input and perform calculations.
