Hello, I'm

Mehul Shinde

I transform cryptic requirements into elegant APIs.
I like to build things that work, ship things that matter, and write code that won't make your future self cry.

About Me

Passionate about creating technology that makes a difference

I wrote my first Java program at the age of 10 and have been captivated by the power of technology ever since. It amazes me that a single piece of software can touch millions of individuals and have a profound impact on their lives in a way that no other medium can.

Today, as a software engineer with a passion to build, I create systems that span from 3D visualization platforms to scalable backend services. Throughout my education and career, I've developed software tools for 3 startups, 3 research labs, and worked directly with several professors on data-driven projects.

Working primarily in backend technologies, I've built everything from research and financial applications to greenfield systems that drive real business growth. My experience ranges from architecting microservices handling millions of requests to optimizing database queries for improved performance.

Whether I'm developing new product offerings, mentoring fellow developers, or optimizing systems to handle increased traffic, my focus remains consistent: leveraging technology to create meaningful solutions that improve how people work and live.

As a technologist, I believe it is my responsibility to use my understanding of software to build tools that don't just work, but that genuinely make people's lives easier and more productive. Every line of code I write is an opportunity to make a positive difference in someone's day.
