Builder’s Overview

A brief look at how I think, build, and grow as an engineer.

I am Sankalp Kumar, an MCA graduate focused on building reliable backend systems and automation-driven applications. I work primarily with Python, Django, REST APIs, and supporting technologies that enable scalability and maintainability.

My projects emphasize real-world problem solving—secure authentication, background task processing, structured data handling, and clean system design. I prefer clarity over complexity and focus on solutions that are practical, testable, and extensible.

Currently, I am deepening my expertise in backend architecture, automation, and system-level thinking while preparing for professional software engineering roles.

Core Engineering Focus

Backend development, RESTful APIs, authentication systems, background jobs, and data modeling.

Notable Work

Built production-grade projects such as DocumentVault and PDF Genie, focusing on security, automation, and user-centric workflows.

Tools & Workflow

Git, GitHub, Docker, Postman, VS Code, PostgreSQL, Redis, and modern CSS frameworks.

Campaigns

Selected Builds

Real-world systems built with clear goals, structured execution, and measurable outcomes.

DocumentVault

DocumentVault

Problem: Managing sensitive documents with expiry tracking and secure access is error-prone and often unstructured.

Strategy: Built a Django-based platform with OTP authentication, background task processing, and automated expiry reminders.

Result: A secure, scalable document lifecycle system with user-controlled data access and automation.

Stack: Django · PostgreSQL · Celery · Redis · Tailwind CSS

PDF Genie

PDF Genie

Problem: Users need quick PDF operations without installing heavy desktop tools.

Strategy: Developed a Telegram bot that performs PDF operations via chat commands.

Result: Lightweight PDF automation directly accessible within Telegram.

Stack: Python · SQLite · Telegram Bot API

WebScraper

WebScraper

Problem: Extracting structured data from websites is repetitive and manual.

Strategy: Built a Django app to scrape specific page elements based on user input.

Result: A reusable data extraction tool for research and analysis.

Stack: Django · Python · HTML · Bootstrap

Campus Connect

Campus Connect

Currently Working

Problem: Manual campus event handling leads to poor coordination and duplication.

Strategy: Building a role-based event platform with REST APIs, QR ticketing, and duplicate entry prevention.

Current Progress: Core backend, authentication, roles, and workflows implemented. Advanced features are in active development.

Stack: Django · DRF · PostgreSQL · QR Code · Bootstrap
