I build full-stack web applications with a focus on backend performance and scalability. I’ve worked with Docker, Nginx, and Redis to optimize APIs and reduce response times under load. I enjoy solving real-world backend challenges while maintaining solid frontend fundamentals.
I’m Asif Ahmed, a fourth-year Computer Science Engineering student at Adamas University (CGPA: 9.0).
I build full-stack web applications with a strong focus on backend performance, scalability, and deployment. I have hands-on experience with React, Node.js, Express, and MongoDB, and I’ve implemented optimizations such as pagination, Redis caching, and API load testing to improve real-world performance.
In projects like Buyora (e-commerce platform) and SigmaGPT (AI SaaS application), I’ve worked with Docker, Nginx, and CI/CD pipelines to create production-like environments, handle traffic efficiently, and secure APIs using rate limiting.
I’ve participated in multiple hackathons, including winning one hosted by IIT Hyderabad. I’m currently focused on strengthening my backend engineering skills and building scalable systems while working towards becoming a software engineer at a top tech company.
