About Richik Mallik

I’m a sophomore Computer Science student at VIT Vellore, interested in building a strong foundation in software development, problem-solving, and systems thinking.I enjoy understanding how things work under the hood — from data structures and object-oriented design to translating logic into clean, working code. I take a problem-first approach: break it down, implement a solution, then refine it through reading, experimentation, and discussion.Alongside development, I have a creative side. I work with Canva and Figma for basic design needs and enjoy communicating ideas visually and clearly. I also write on Medium through SIAM VIT, where I share thoughts, learnings, and reflections related to tech and student life.I’ve worked on a few foundational projects to strengthen my concepts in C++, Java, and Python, focusing more on learning core principles than building large-scale products. I’m comfortable using Git/GitHub, the Linux terminal, and collaborating in team environments.Currently, I’m looking for Software Development Intern opportunities where I can improve my fundamentals, write better code, and learn from real-world engineering challenges.Always open to learning, collaboration, and constructive feedback.
