Java & Backend Developer · BCA Student

Hey, I’m Shiva.
Curious about how things work.

I’m a backend-focused Java developer and BCA student who pairs Spring Boot, REST API, and SQL (MySQL, PostgreSQL) skills with systems-level C experience and open-source contributions to Godot Engine.

My favourite kind of learning is building something, hitting a bug, and figuring out why.

A FEW THINGS I LIKE

Curiosity, in a few directions

01 / BUILD

Backend things

Java, Spring Boot, REST APIs, MySQL & PostgreSQL, and building software that behaves well beyond the happy path.

02 / UNPACK

Under the hood

C, processes, raw TCP sockets, memory management, file descriptors, and the details that make computers work.

03 / PLAY

Open source & games

Contributing bug fixes to Godot Engine 4.8 (3 merged PRs) and experimenting with game mechanics in Unity and C#.

A SMALL SIDE NOTE

01 / 07

One more thing…

I’ve merged 3 bug-fix pull requests into Godot Engine 4.8 (#124054, #124170, #123035) out of 11 submitted, with 6 more under review.
