Passionate Developer & Lifelong Learner

Hi, I’m Nikhil Hegde, an MCA graduate(2024) from MIT Manipal with hands-on professional experience in building scalable, production-grade software solutions. I’m dedicated to harnessing technology to craft impactful solutions.

My technical skills span across C++, Java, JavaScript, Python, and I specialize in web development using Node.js (Express, Multer, Passport, Websockets), Python React, MongoDB, and SQL. I’ve contributed to backend systems focusing on performance and scalability, bridging theoretical knowledge with real-world application.

Machine learning and deep learning fuel my enthusiasm. My hands-on experience with large language models, vector databases, and RAG provide me with a solid foundation to tackle complex challenges.

Additionally, I bring proficiency in Docker, Google Cloud Platform, and Git, enhancing my capabilities in DevOps. My skills extend to data visualization and analytics, with experience in Power BI to transform data into actionable insights.
