Background

About Ashwin Chandak

I’m a recent Computer Science and Cyber Security graduate from Manipal Institute of Technology, Bengaluru, passionate about building scalable, secure, and intelligent systems. During my internship at Altair (Siemens), I developed a robust test case automation tool and contributed to web application security assessments as part of the Security Center of Excellence—leveraging Burp Suite and secure development practices. Previously, as a Data Analyst Intern at Shadowfax, I processed over logistics records using SQL and Python to optimize operations and reduce costs. My project work spans both traditional backend systems and cutting-edge AI: SmartTask Pro: A scalable productivity platform built with Java + Spring Boot, integrating Redis, Kafka, Docker, and PostgreSQL. Architected with microservices, secured with JWT/OAuth, deployed via CI/CD, and documented with OpenAPI. AI-Powered Bank Statement Parser: An LLM-based agent to extract and structure financial data from PDFs and Excel using LangChain and ChromaDB. LLM-Powered Research Companion: A GenAI tool for summarizing academic papers with HuggingFace, LangChain, and FAISS. I’m seeking full-time opportunities in backend engineering, AI/ML systems, Data or cybersecurity—where I can solve real-world challenges through impactful software. Let’s connect!
