Experience
Software Engineer Intern
SimCentric Technologies
- ›Contributed to the development and maintenance of a large-scale simulation platform, supporting 3 core simulation modules and improving feature reliability, by architecting solutions across 4 application layers
- ›Secured data integrity and consistent system behavior, reducing user input errors by approx. 40% across mission planning forms, by implementing complex workflow logic and validation constraints.
- ›Accelerated integration testing cycles by approx. 50%, eliminating dependency on heavy live game engines by engineering a custom C++ mock service to simulate end-to-end mission interactions
- ›Resolved 50+ critical non-trivial defects, decreasing debugging time for future issues by improving logging coverage, by performing end-to-end root-cause analysis across frontend and integration layers
- ›Enhanced application stability and user experience, resulting in the elimination of 20+ persistent UI inconsistencies, by fixing validation issues, layout glitches, and incorrect visual states across 10+ critical application panels.

Featured Projects
A platform that provides personalized candidate profiles, company dashboards for reviewing CVs, and an admin dashboard for system administration. I have develop the registration form, whole admin panel and some part of the home page. The platform facilitated over 800 candidate registrations and more than 1,000 interviews. It won the Best Industry Collaborative Project Award for the event (IEEE SL Section - 2023).
The project is focused on the digitalization of attendance marking process by automating the recording process through the use of RFID university ID card of the students.
Led development of an event management and ticket booking web application. Built organization dashboards and a drag-and-drop page builder for event customization.
Led communication with stakeholders and managed feature delivery timelines. Developed registration, user profiles, and company profile-viewing functionality.
Developed core platform features including user profiles, real-time chat, ratings, and payments. Integrated backend services to support candidate and recruiter interactions.
Developed and launched the official IEEE Student Branch website. Implemented user registration and onboarding for 200+ members.
