AI & Data Science undergrad · Full-Stack Developer · GSoC 2026 Applicant
I'm a third-year B.Tech student in AI & Data Science who ended up falling into full-stack web development through open source. My background is in Python and ML, but over the past few months I've been working seriously with Angular, ASP.NET Core, and PostgreSQL — which gave me a much better picture of how real production systems are built.
I care about understanding a codebase before touching it. I read through issues, trace the actual bug, then write the smallest fix that solves it cleanly. I prefer leaving code slightly better than I found it — cleaner error handling, removed duplication, fixed memory leaks — even when the task didn't ask for it.
Currently preparing for GSoC 2026, contributing to open source projects, and building things that actually run.
| Project | Issue | What I did |
|---|---|---|
| Research Data Platform (Angular / ASP.NET / PostgreSQL) | Fragile JupyterLite integration that broke on every version upgrade | Replaced manual index.html patching with a proper lifecycle plugin, consolidated a duplicated service across two locations, fixed an event listener memory leak in ngOnDestroy |
More contributions in progress — this table grows.
- Contributing to open source projects as part of GSoC 2026 preparation
- Going deeper on Angular — RxJS, lifecycle hooks, service architecture
- ASP.NET Core — API design, EF Core, middleware
- Strengthening ML foundations with PyTorch for coursework and projects
