Technically, I am proficient in C++, C#, Python, Scala, SQL, React, Node.js, and the MERN stack, enabling me to build robust and scalable applications. My expertise also extends to data engineering with Kafka and Scala for processing large-scale data, and I hold a keen interest in machine learning and deep learning, having worked on projects leveraging these technologies for predictive insights. I’m passionate about tackling complex engineering challenges and contributing to impactful, scalable products that make a real difference.
