About

Hello! I'm Siddhant, a full stack developer with a passion for building cool projects and diving into new technologies. From side apps to scalable platforms, I've explored a wide range of challenges that have helped me grow as a developer.

On the frontend, I focus on crafting responsive, dynamic interfaces with React, Redux, GraphQL, and modern JavaScript. On the backend, I`ve worked with Spring Boot, Node.js, Python, and built APIs that run on Linux servers with Apache or deploy seamlessly on AWS.

Currently, I`m working at the University of Mississippi, helping migrate and manage the campus website using Cascade CMS, PHP, JavaScript, Velocity, and SQL, while ensuring strong accessibility and performance. Previously at Henry Schein, I developed scalable web solutions and implemented CI/CD pipelines on AWS.

Right now I`m exploring custom GPT development and preparing for the AWS Developer Associate certification. Whether it`s improving user experience, optimizing code, or experimenting with ML tools, I love building things that make a difference.
