About Harsha Vardhan Kaki
Full Stack Engineer | Problem Solver | Occasional Bug Creator (but I fix them. mostly)Hey there! I’m Harsha, a Full Stack Software Engineer with 4+ years of experience designing scalable back-end systems and crafting seamless front-end interfaces. Basically, if it involves code, caffeine, and creative problem-solving, I’m in. What I Do- Build and scale systems that just work (until they don’t, and then I fix them)- Make React dance and Redux behave—sometimes with a little bribery (aka state management tricks)- Architect distributed, scalable solutions so millions of users can share, shop, and save (literally, I built Amazon’s deals and coupons system!)- Optimize real-time collaboration (because waiting for updates is so 2005).Push pixels and APIs with equal enthusiasm, ensuring the frontend and backend live in perfect harmony. What I\'ve Worked On- Built a social sharing system at Amazon that enables millions of customers to share products (yes, I help make impulse buying even easier)- Designed a real-time collaborative Amazon Lists feature, reducing latency by 40%(because refreshing the page is for amateurs)- Engineered a deals & coupons system helping 60M+ users save over $1M every month (I take full credit for your discounts—you\'re welcome)- Served ~5 billion requests daily with a backend service that generates social media previews (so yeah, my code is practically an influencer). Tech I Speak:JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Redux, Node.js, Java, AWS, Webpack, HTML, CSS, SQL—basically, I can probably debug your website and your coffee machine.When I’m not coding, you’ll find me learning new tech, optimizing performance, and convincing my friends that front-end development is harder than it looks.Let’s connect and geek out over software, scalability, or the best debugging stories!
