end-to-end ownership / system design / shipped & adopted

Engineering,
end to end

Software engineer with strong Computer Science fundamentals — data structures & algorithms, object-oriented design, databases, operating systems, and system design. I build, test, and deploy full-stack, API-driven applications, and my project work runs deepest in security engineering and on-chain systems: an adversarial prompt-injection defense pipeline and an Ethereum escrow platform, both designed and owned end-to-end.

Comfortable owning problems end-to-end, and communicating clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders in fast-moving, collaborative teams.

01

Software Development

React front-ends against FastAPI, Flask, and Node.js services — REST API design, schema modelling, automated testing, and deployment, on a core-CS and system-design foundation.

02

Cybersecurity

Adversarial defense engineering: input sanitization, injection-attack classification, and graph-based drift detection, built to secure an AI code-review pipeline.

03

Blockchain

Ethereum smart contracts in Solidity with IPFS-backed storage — milestone escrow logic and automated on-chain fund release, designed to remove the intermediary.

UNO Minda Limited

Data Analyst Intern

Data & Smart Manufacturing

  • 01

    Self-initiated and shipped an AI meeting assistant (OpenAI Whisper + Google Gemini) that auto-transcribes and summarizes recurring production-review meetings into action items, automating a previously manual workflow; adopted for ongoing team use.

  • 02

    Designed and deployed an LLM-powered helpdesk chatbot, grounded on a curated knowledge base, to handle live user queries and escalate low-confidence cases to human support; integrated into the company website and internal tools.

  • 03

    Built and shipped a Python/pandas data engineering and reporting tool from scratch, cross-verifying instrumentation and PLC entries against maintenance logs to flag data gaps; adopted by the production team as a standing reference document.

  • 04

    Communicated findings, blockers, and progress directly to engineering, production, and business stakeholders — translating technical work into clear updates for non-technical audiences.

Full-Stack AI Prompt Injection Defense System

View repository

A three-stage adversarial defense pipeline that secures AI-powered GitHub PR review assistants against prompt injection — Unicode sanitization, ML classification, and Neo4j-based temporal drift detection.

  • 01

    Co-built the full-stack defense pipeline and system design; owned the FastAPI backend and API design, Neo4j graph logic, and React 19 dashboard end-to-end.

  • 02

    Fine-tuned a DistilBERT classifier for code-based injection detection as a responsible-AI and model evaluation exercise, reaching 92.4% accuracy and 91.8% F1 on a 326-sample dataset.

  • 03

    Kept the full pipeline running in roughly 67ms per request, validated with 325 automated tests at 72% coverage through rigorous software testing and debugging.

EscrowLancer

Blockchain Freelance Escrow Platform

View repository

A decentralized escrow system on Ethereum smart contracts with IPFS-backed storage, built for milestone-based freelance payments with automated on-chain fund release.

  • 01

    Architected the decentralized system design on Ethereum smart contracts with IPFS-backed storage for milestone-based freelance payments.

  • 02

    Eliminated intermediaries and reduced dispute risk by encoding milestone verification and payment release logic directly on-chain.

Let’s build
something

I’m looking for software engineering roles where I can own problems end-to-end — backend and full-stack product work, security engineering, or on-chain systems. Happy to talk about any of it.
