Senior Full Stack Engineer
Hi, I'm Ipseeta
Over a decade of experience building scalable APIs, backend systems, and high-performance applications with Node.js and modern technologies.
About Me
From IIIT to over a decade of building & writing
I graduated with a B.Tech in Information Technology from IIIT in 2013. Since then I've spent over a decade as a full stack engineer across four to five companies, building end-to-end applications, from intuitive interfaces to scalable backend systems, with React, Next.js, Node.js, TypeScript, and MongoDB.
Writing has been part of the journey from the start. My technical articles have been published on SitePoint, Hashnode, and my own blog, covering Node.js and backend engineering, JavaScript fundamentals, and Java. I care about clean architecture, performant APIs, and sharing what I learn along the way.
Away from the keyboard, you'll find me taking photos, spending time with dogs and cats, and keeping my husband on his toes. 馃檪
