University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Tech Stack: React.js, Node.js, PostgreSQL Illinois, USA
• Designed and deployed a full-stack research platform with REST APIs and secure role-based access, centralizing 500+ neurology projects for 100+ faculty and student users
• Improved research discovery and search relevance by implementing hybrid semantic search across 22 metadata fields using PostgreSQL full-text retrieval and vector embeddings Software Development Engineer Aug 2021 – Jul 2024
Tata Consultancy Services Tech Stack: C#/.NET, SQL Server, REST APIs, Jenkins Pune, India
• Improved information retrieval by 30% by developing search and content APIs for a centralized knowledge platform serving 500+ engineers across team-specific and shared documentation
• Reduced manual operational effort by 80% and saved 1,500+ hours annually by building API-driven automation workflows and internal tooling using C#/.NET
• Built Jenkins CI/CD pipelines automating builds, testing, and deployment validation across environments, eliminating manual release handoffs and improving production deployment reliability
• Reduced incident resolution time by 40% by building Splunk telemetry dashboards and alerts across 20+ production workflows, centralizing live-site failure diagnostics and root-cause investigation
• Refactored and migrated business-critical production workflows with zero downtime, optimizing legacy implementations and validating replacements before production cutover PROJECTS
FairSplit - Expense Reconciliation Platform
React, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, RAG, OpenAI API, AWS Textract
• Simplified shared expense splitting by converting receipts into item-level allocations using OCR and LLM pipelines, reducing manual entry and calculation
• Built a RAG-based preference memory layer that retrieves past allocations and user choices to personalize future splits, reducing repetitive setup as household spending patterns evolve Cloud Deployment Failure Analyzer
Go, Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS, Argo CD, GitHub Actions
• Streamlined deployment failure investigation by correlating CI/CD runs, Terraform state, Kubernetes events, application logs, and distributed traces into a unified timeline with probable root-cause findings
• Automated deployment validation and infrastructure drift detection through GitHub Actions, surfacing configuration errors and service health regressions before production rollout
