About Sunit Shirke

My personal website: I’m a Software Development Engineer with 5+ years of experience building scalable, production-ready web and backend systems across insurance, pharmaceutical, and academic research domains. My work bridges real-world impact with clean, efficient code — from developing enterprise-grade microservices and distributed systems to advancing AI-enabled web tools. Currently, I’m a Graduate Research Assistant at NJIT, where I led the front-end overhaul of a multi-million-dollar government application, optimizing UI responsiveness and reducing processing times by 75%. I’ve also contributed to course development for Artificial Intelligence, helping students bridge theory with practical coding using Python and state-of-the-art libraries. Previously, I engineered secure, role-based portals for 5M+ users at MindCraft Software, streamlined CI/CD pipelines with Docker and Azure DevOps, and developed a high-speed clinical trials indexing engine deployed across 70+ countries. Core Tech Stack: React, TypeScript, Golang, Python, Spring Boot, Node.js DevOps & Cloud: Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, Azure DevOps, Jenkins Specialties: Full-stack Development, Distributed Systems, Cloud Engineering, Scalable APIs, DevOps Automation, NLP/AI Integration I thrive in teams that value ownership, innovation, and clean architecture. Whether it's building a Redis-style distributed database in Go or deploying real-time NLP-based QA systems — I’m always learning and building.
