Arnav Dashaputra · Personal Portfolio
Full-Stack SWE
Hey, welcome to my site! 🤠
As a recent graduate of Rutgers University, my passion lies in the world of computer science and
engineering.
I have a strong bias for action, translating business needs into dependable software through
analytical processes and methodical execution. I’m currently pursuing a full-time role where I can
contribute to meaningful projects, collaborate across teams, and grow while delivering measurable
results.
I'm proficient across various tech fields including software engineering, data analytics, and
information technology. Much of my current work centers on full-stack development and intuitive
design. I specialize in front-end technologies such as React and Bootstrap to create responsive,
user-friendly applications. On the back-end, my expertise lies in JavaScript, Node, and Python.
Additionally, my preferred tech stack includes work with databases, interface design tools, and
cloud solutions, enabling me to build robust, scalable, and visually appealing applications.
Beyond development, some more niche interests I have include Discord bot development, custom
peripheral design and collecting (mechanical keyboards, enthusiast-grade mice and mousepads, etc.),
PC hardware, digital graphic design, and DIY embedded systems projects.
Check out more about me and my current (and upcoming) projects in the sections below!
