hey, I'm Arya 👋

Hey there! I'm Arya, just your typical neighborhood code enthusiast. I love turning complex problems into simple, beautiful solutions. My friends say I live in the backend, but I'm just as happy to kick it in the frontend, too. I have a robust grip on system design and excel in chiseling backend code with Golang.

Journey Through The Books 📖

I started my academic adventure at the esteemed National Institute of Engineering, Mysore, studying Computer Science. There, in the whirlwind of exams and project submissions, I found my true calling in coding. But I wasn't done yet. The Indian Institute of Technology, Madras welcomed me next, where I immersed myself in the world of Data Science.

The Arya Tech Stack ⚙️

In this fast-paced tech world, you've got to keep up. So, here are my companions: C++, C, Java, Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, and Go. I've also tried out frameworks like React.js, Node.js, Express.js, Django, Flask, FastAPI, and Nest.js, and got hands dirty with Unix, Shell Scripting, AWS, Firebase, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, and MySQL.

Setting the Stage in Silicon Valley 🌉

At Longshot.ai, my passion for technology soared as a Full Stack Intern. I fueled FastAPI microservices, crafted automated tests with Selenium, and resolved backend bugs with flair. Embracing full stack challenges, I honed my skills with gusto. 🚀

My stint at Careerflow.ai (TechStars '23) whisked me all the way to Sunnyvale, California (virtually, of course!). There, I played a part in the development of a subscription model for a job tracking SaaS application and a Chrome extension, adding a dash of value to the users. Along with power packed features requested by the users. I got the privilege to work with a team of highly skilled and motivated folks including engineers behind the vision pro! 👨‍💻

Back home in Mysore, I joined the team at SportsKPI as a Full Stack Intern. There, I juggled several exciting projects, like developing a SaaS platform for sports analytics, and even a unique scouting app for Kabaddi. Yes, you read it right, Kabaddi!
