Web Development Head

As the Web Development Head at MIST, I was responsible for managing all the web related portals and databases related to the club. I also oversaw projects being held in my domain, along with helping in the general functioning of the club.

Organiser, Incognito 2021

As a club, we organised a technical fest called Incognito which saw participation from over 7 countries. The four events conducted over a span of three days was the most successful fest condcuted in the short history of the club.

Developer and Organiser, Faceless

I led the creation, deployment and management of the Faceless game portal created for the first time in Incognito 21. It was a web based portal for an OSINT based event, where we created fake identities of people over 3 months and required participants to trace out their details following a pre-determined storyline.

Management Committee member

As a Management Committee member, I contributed to social media posts (both content and graphics), helped in recruiting and managing the Working Committe of the club, and worked on a couple of projects for technical fests of the college.

Revels and TechTatva

During college fests, the Post was responsible for bringing out daily newsletters for which we worked through the night. This involved creating short (funny) reports, illustrations, official addresses and much more!

Head of Writing

As Head of Writing at the Post, I was responsible, along with my other board members for all the written content that we put out as a club. I proofread and fact-checked every piece that the Post published during my tenure. I also coordinated the work of various divisions of the writing department.

Sub-Editor, Writing Department

As a Sub-Editor, I was involved in managing junior writers, editing their reports and articles, as well as curating content for magazines and newsletters. We also helped the board with recruitments and other club activities.

Writer

I joined the official media body of MIT, Manipal, as a writer who covered events around college and wrote reports for them. I also worked on writing articles and opinion pieces about national and international events.

Developer, Manipal Entrepreneurship Summit Website

I built the official website of Manipal Entrepreneurship Summit 2022 held at MIT, Manipal. It served as a single place for registration for all participants, as well as a place for schedules of all events. It was used by 1500+ users over a span of 7 days.

Developer, Entrepreneurship Cell Website

I built two versions of the official website of the Entrepreneurship Cell, making several design changes, workflow changes and data changes over the course of a year. It also had a dedicated resources section for all startup oriented content.

Executive, Content Team

I worked in the Content team of the E-Cell for a year, where I was responsible for bringing out startup and entrepreneurship based content for social media posts. We also wrote and edited any content required by the organisation for its various outreach purposes.

Co-founder and Developer, Dotfood

In November 2021, I co-founded a mobile application based startup with a friend. Named Dotfood, it dealt with delivery of food from various canteens and restaurants in within college to hostels of students. Within 6 months of it's launch, it had 2500+ downloads and was actively used throughout the campus. I worked on the web based admin console where restaurants could manage orders, as well as on social media marketing. For reasons entirely noy under our control, we failed to scale up and spread to other colleges :(

Full stack developer

As part of the Innovation Center, I got the opportunity to work on collaborative projects with Kasturba Medical College, Manipal. Even though the projects have not yet made it to production, they served to increase my knowledge on how to design products to suit non-technical audiences. I got to work with doctors and professors who wanted a system to automate processes in an effort to minimize paperwork and improve accountability.

Full Stack Developer, Material Research Center

I worked on Project aNANt, the world's largest database of functional materials, under Prof. Abhishek Singh. I was part of the initial team that created the base web application to display and download functional mateiral data from the database. Eventually, I completed a six month internship with the team at IISc, where I completed the various cogs of the wheel that made up the aNANt software. This included deploying multiple codebases on an in-house Linux server, managing these deployments, and integrating newer functionality like email alerts, database downloads, and creating comprehensive documentation.

Researcher, Lakehead University

I worked on Brain Computing Interfaces and their applications in authentication under Prof. Garima Bajwa at Lakehead University, Thunder Bay. We worked on analysing the reproducibility metrics involved in BCI research. I learnt how to analyse large EEG datasets, gained knowledge about filters and data manipulation, and implemented ML algorithms and neural networks using Python.

(Virtual) Paper Presentation, Utah

My research partner and I put together a paper on reproducibility techniques in BCI research to Rewords22 which is being held as part of IEEE 18th International Conference (e-Science) in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. The paper got accepted and was presented virtually at the conference in October 2022.

Volunteer, Organising Team

As part of the organising team, I helped out with speaker coordination, deciding and ordering swag for the conference, and other pre-conference tasks. During the two-day event held in Bengaluru, I helped the team to manage audiences and volunteered to help out with other day-to-day tasks at the venue. This event helped me interact with people and live projects in the open source world.
