I'm an engineer and a part-time dreamer footballer. I've been coding for 2 years and started with open source contributions. I can spend a whole day listening to songs and not remember a single lyric. I like observing people and the psychology behind them. I learn everything by myself.

Work

Mar – May 2026 · Remote

Meshery, CNCF

Software Engineering Intern, LFX Mentorship Term 1
  • Led the migration of 5+ production apps from Next.js 12 to 16 and React 18 to 19 across Meshery, Sistent and Layer5, and resolved the breaking API changes that blocked the ecosystem's dependency roadmap.
  • Profiled the Layer5 website build (1,348 pages): peak memory 13.4 to 9.9 GB (−26%), build time down 22%, app.js down 71% with a Webpack icon-alias shim, image downscaling and dead-plugin removal.
  • Made Sistent tree-shakeable with an ESM exports map, sideEffects:false and path-based icon imports. A single-component consumer bundle went from 14.7 to 2.3 MB (−85%).
  • Moved PR preview infrastructure from Netlify to GitHub Pages with GitHub Actions, removing third-party hosting costs and deploying a preview on every pull request.
More from this term
  • Fixed Meshery server defects by aligning query parameter handling with the UI contract and correcting Kubernetes cluster-count aggregation. Added Kubernetes Gateway API models and clearer mesheryctl CLI errors.
  • Upgraded the shared mui-datatables package to React 18 across 48+ files, then removed a 10,800-module icon barrel from its Rollup output and added an ESLint guard against regressions.
  • Migrated JavaScript codebases to TypeScript and shipped light-mode theming, a theme switcher and reusable components in the Sistent design system.
  • Shipped and maintained the Meshery Academy and Exoscale Academy platforms, improving test coverage and contributor onboarding.

  • Shipped features and fixes across React architecture, CI/CD pipelines, deployment automation, GitHub Packages and automated testing.

Practice data structures and algorithms in your browser, on your own computer. One small program, no account, nothing uploaded. It runs your Java or C++ with the compilers you already have and keeps your solutions as plain files.

183 problems in two sheets. Every submit runs your code against the examples, fixed edge cases and 50 fresh random cases. Ships in Paper and Ink themes, with optional AI hints that explain without writing the answer.
