Vivek Ranjan

I have a lot of experience and enjoy working on both the frontend and backend aspects of software. I am passionate about creating software based solutions for people to get their work done faster, quicker and accurately.

People I have worked with have always been surprised with the maturity of my skills and my work ethics. This is something I am very proud of and will try to maintain it.

I have experience in working for web and mobile technologies including but not limited to Java, Python, Andrdoid, Spring, Hibernate, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, PostgresSQL, HTML/CSS, PHP, Symfony, JavaScript and jQuery.

I am motivated enough to have started freelancing as a web developer while in high school. In college, I launched my own website as the sole technical person on a team of two. I am currently trying to squeeze every bit of performance that I can from the web app which has led me down a crazy path of config files for memcache, Varnish, Nginx, load balancers and what not. I also developed an Android app for the website a while ago.

While in college, I went off the usual path and took a break for a year to work with a government agency to help them create software solutions that would benefit the vast population of India. This not only helped me gain valuable experience as a software developer and also allowed me to work with a team of brilliant technical and non-technical people and also understand how to get work done correctly and efficiently in a bureaucratic environment like the Government of India.

While pursuing my MS in Computer Science, in an attempt to push myself further, I began to work with the Department of Educational Psychology with building full stack software solutions using Java, Spring, HTML/CSS, Javascript, jQuery and related technologies that allows them to quickly and accurately collect data for their research and then analyze them for eye opening insights to build a better class of assessments for the school going children of the future.
