Portfolio

Featured Engineering Projects

Production-oriented systems spanning healthcare scheduling, distributed message queues, and developer infrastructure.

Active System

Medi-care Appointment & Notification Engine

An end-to-end hospital appointment booking, rescheduling, and cancellation platform. Automatically dispatches real-time transactional email confirmations and calendar schedule updates to both patients and doctors.

Supabase PostgreSQL Event Notifications REST APIs

Data Streaming

Medi-care Kafka & Redpanda Event Pipeline

Asynchronous event streaming backbone (medi-care-kafka) built on managed Apache Kafka (Aiven) and Redpanda Serverless to decouple appointment state mutations, slot availability updates, and audit logs.

Apache Kafka Aiven Cloud Redpanda Upstash Redis

Web & Infrastructure

CoffeeNCode.in Developer Hub & Cloud Sandbox

Personal engineering hub and full-stack experimentation lab hosted on coffeencode.in. Configured with custom DNS routing (CNAME/SRV), Appwrite BaaS environments, and cloud deployment pipelines on Render & Voroa.

Academic Foundation

Computer Science & Engineering

Computer Science Curriculum

B.Tech / B.E. in Computer Science & Engineering

Focused on core computer science pillars including Image Processing & Computer Vision (CS-803A), Distributed Systems, Database Management Systems, and Software Engineering.

Continuous Learning

Cloud Architecture & AI Engineering

Hands-on exploration of agentic AI workflows, Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations, serverless streamhouses, and modern cloud deployment platforms.

Engineering Mindset

How I Approach Building Software

Rather than just studying theory, I focus on building end-to-end systems—connecting real databases, configuring DNS and email deliverability, streaming events through Kafka, and crafting responsive user interfaces.

Event-First

Decoupled architectures with Kafka & webhooks

Full-Cycle

From database schema to custom domain DNS
