About Rakesh Chikatla
I am a final-year Information Technology student at Gayatri Vidya Parishad College of Engineering, graduating in 2026, with a strong foundation in Data Structures and Algorithms (C++) and a deep interest in Full-Stack Web Development.My passion for problem-solving has driven me to solve coding problems across platforms, refining my ability to tackle algorithmic problems under time constraints. On LeetCode, I hold a rating of 1819 (top 6% globally) with highlights such as Global Rank 1171 in Weekly Contest 435. On GeeksforGeeks, I am a 3-Star (1656) with AIR 621 in Weekly Contest 189, alongside ratings of 1079 on Codeforces and 2-Star on CodeChef. These achievements reflect my consistency in approaching problems analytically, optimizing solutions, and applying concepts like dynamic programming, graphs, and advanced data structures.Beyond competitive programming, I worked as a Junior Developer Intern at Namoona 3D Labs and completed the Infosys Springboard Internship, gaining hands-on development experience. I am currently building projects such as the Interview Prep Resource Hub, LeetCode Progress Tracker, and Resume Builder, applying MERN stack development and exploring ML integrations.I actively participate in coding contests, hackathons, and open-source contributions, including 40+ PRs in GSSoC and Hacktoberfest, where I also mentored peers. My ability to bridge algorithmic thinking with practical development makes me eager to take on impactful engineering challenges.
