About Me

I am a software developer, with 5 years of experience. Most recently, I worked on Oracle Siebel development for Dassault Systemes, where my responsibilities included creating a lead scoring algorithm, upgrading Siebel system to the latest Stable version, IP18, and designing custom functionalities for Japanese users. Previously, I worked with software consultants like Accenture and Bristlecone as a Senior Developer and Senior Consultant.

During the past year, I have been pursuing my master’s at San Jose State University, where I have had the opportunity of working on diverse technologies like Node.js, React.js, Docker, Java, Redis caching, and Kafka Messaging. In my project Eventify, I used RFID to track the movement of attendees in an event and provide them with live event updates. The same data was used to generate leads for vendors thus, generating revenue for organizers. I used Apache Kafka and Redis caching to make applications like Grubhub and Twitter scalable as a part of my Distributed Systems class. I also developed an application that intends to reduce the number of visits to grocery stores. A pool is created among neighbors, who live in the same locality and can pick orders for pool members. An email notification is sent for each step of the order, also data privacy is highly taken care of during email communications.
