About Me
Hello, I'm Harshal Vaidya, a software engineer with a robust background in full-stack web development and a passion for building impactful, user-centric solutions. My journey is marked by academic excellence, professional achievements, and a dedication to staying at the forefront of technology.
I hold a Master’s degree in Computer Science from Stevens Institute of Technology, graduating with a stellar GPA of 3.9/4. My professional experience spans dynamic roles, including my current position as a Software Engineer at Radiance Technologies. There, I have enhanced subscription-based systems, redesigned web applications for improved user engagement, and optimized deployment pipelines using AWS. Previously, at ICICI Securities, I scaled financial systems, implemented subscription-based services, and improved customer experience for millions of users.
I have also undertaken challenging projects that showcase my problem-solving abilities and technical expertise. Notable examples include Crypto Trading View, a real-time cryptocurrency data visualization platform built with React and WebSockets, and House of Books, where I implemented advanced caching techniques and Redux for seamless state management. Additionally, during my tenure at Breathing.ai, I championed accessibility by achieving WCAG compliance and improving usability for disabled users.
Beyond my technical expertise, I have contributed to the community as a Graduate Peer Leader at Stevens Institute, mentoring fellow students and fostering collaborative learning. With a skill set that includes React, Node.js, AWS, and Docker, and experience in accessibility and performance optimization, I am eager to continue creating innovative solutions that make a difference.
