About me
Work experience
Personal Project
Heartsy (Dating Web Application)
– In this project, I built an end-to-end dating web application using React (Vite), Express.js, and PostgreSQL, handling both frontend user interfaces and backend architecture. – I designed and implemented RESTful APIs, user authentication flows, profile management, and matching logic, with a focus on secure data handling. – I developed real-time features such as chat and notifications, and optimized PostgreSQL queries to improve performance and scalability.
Tag Game (Multiplayer Game)
– In this project, I created a multiplayer game where two players navigate a 2D arena with the goal of catching each other. Users can play locally on the same device or connect remotely via a Websocket-powered back-end for a real-time experience. – For the front-end, I utilized HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, incorporating Tailwind CSS for a responsive and intuitive interface. – For the back-end, I used Django, integrating Django Channels to handle WebSocket connections and ensure smooth real-time interactions between players, and implementing RESTful API endpoints using Django Rest Framework to manage game scores, including functionality to add, retrieve, and delete game score history in the database.
Webserv (HTTP Web Server)
Group Project
– In this group project, we developed a fully functional HTTP web server that adheres to the HTTP/1.1 protocol specification. The server supports key features such as handling GET, POST, and DELETE methods, managing multiple simultaneous connections, and implementing error handling to ensure seamless client-server interactions. – This project significantly deepened my understanding of server-side programming and low-level networking concepts.
Software Engineering Intern

7 months
– Contributed to XAD, a C++ open-source automatic differentiation library, implementing new features and optimizing memory-efficient components for high-performance and accelerated computing workflows. – Using React.js and Next.js I developed front-end features and internal developer tools that improved the clarity, usability, and visualization of computational graphs. – Using FastAPI I designed and extended backend modules, creating robust and maintainable API endpoints. – Wrote production-quality code supported by comprehensive unit tests (pytest / GoogleTest / vitest) and clear technical documentation. – Participated in system architecture discussions, code reviews, and sprint planning, influencing high-quality engineering decisions and ensuring alignment with project milestones. – Worked extensively with Linux, shell scripting, CMake/Make, and modern Git workflows (branching strategies, CI/CD pipelines, PR reviews).
