ABOUT KAVITHA SHANMUGAN

I’m a passionate Full Stack Developer with hands-on experience building scalable web applications using modern technologies like Node.js, NestJS, Next.js, React, and AWS. My journey has taken me through diverse domains, from banking and insurance systems to non-profit projects, where I’ve contributed both independently and as part of agile, cross-functional teams. With a background in Electrical and Electronics Engineering and a certification in AWS Certified Developer – Associate, I bring a strong mix of analytical problem-solving, cloud knowledge, and real-world application experience. My projects span serverless architectures, RESTful APIs, authentication systems (Cognito/JWT), and full CI/CD pipelines. I thrive on challenges — whether it’s optimizing Lambda functions, building clean front-end experiences, or supporting customers with empathy and technical clarity. Having worked across India, the US, and Canada (including remote roles), I understand global development standards and local needs. Beyond tech, I enjoy mentoring, learning new concepts like cybersecurity, and building meaningful solutions — including a recent initiative to support an arts foundation through volunteer tech development. Currently open to opportunities in backend/cloud development, technical support engineering, or health tech integrations. Let’s connect if you\'re looking for someone who codes with heart, learns relentlessly, and brings thoughtful structure to everything they touch!
