Akash R P

Bangalore-based Full Stack Developer with 2 years of experience building scalable, cloud-based applications with a strong foundation in backend engineering and frontend architecture. I specialize in developing robust RESTful APIs using Node.js, Express, and PostgreSQL, and have hands-on experience integrating cloud services like AWS Lambda, S3, RDS, and EC2. On the frontend, I craft responsive and accessible user interfaces using React, TypeScript, and TailwindCSS.

I’ve contributed to SaaS platforms across waste management, EdTech, and e-commerce, focusing on performance, reliability, and clean code. From building real-time interview bots with AI/ML APIs like OpenAI Whisper to optimizing backend workflows with Redis and Google Maps APIs, I’m passionate about leveraging modern tools to solve real-world problems and deliver seamless user experiences.

When I’m not coding, I stay up to date with the latest technology trends, experiment with new tools, attend tech meetups, or enjoy reading, cooking, and watching drama or action movies.
