About
The person behind
the keyboard.
Hey — I'm Vishal, a full-stack developer with ~2 years of experience turning ideas into clean, fast web products. I work across the entire stack — from pixel-precise React interfaces to battle-tested Fastify backends.
My day usually involves building features, untangling database performance issues, or obsessing over animation curves. On the side, I've been building an algorithmic trading system with Python — a deep dive into quant finance, parallel computing, and statistical analysis.
Right now I'm actively pursuing machine learning as my next frontier, with an eye on using ML to enhance both web products and trading systems.
When I'm not coding, I'm lifting weights, running, or exploring new tools on my Fedora Linux setup. I believe great software is equal parts craft and engineering — the details matter.

Journey
Exploring AI & New Opportunities
Actively learning ML, data science, and AI while exploring what's next. Open to roles where I can build meaningful things at the intersection of software engineering and intelligent systems.
Back to Fundamentals
Started a new chapter — diving deep into machine learning, artificial intelligence, and the mathematical foundations of computing. Rebuilding from first principles with a clearer sense of direction.
First Tech Job — Totality Corp
Joined a tech startup in Gurgaon, India as a full-stack developer. Spent 1.5 years shipping real products, working in a fast-paced team, and growing from a self-taught coder into a professional engineer.
Self-Taught Developer
Taught myself to code from scratch. Built projects, broke things, fixed them, and learned more from mistakes than any course could teach. Fell in love with the craft of building software.
NEET Aspirant → Pivot to Code
Spent three years preparing for NEET, cracked it — but walking away from an MBBS seat was the best decision I ever made. Chose to follow curiosity over convention and turned to programming.
