Software engineer at Samsung R&D · Noida, India
Code that feels designed.Engineering that holds up.
I build interactive interfaces and the systems behind them — schema, API and screen, usually all three. Product work on a team by day; my own projects, and the write-ups behind them, the rest of the time.
Open to new roles
Nice to meet you
I'm Harshit — a software engineer. I build the interfaces people actually touch and the APIs and schemas underneath them, and I'd rather ship something small that works than something large that demos.

What I reach for, and why
The tools I know deeply enough to be opinionated about.
Where I've worked
Two and a half years shipping on a team

Selected work
The work, in detail
Lecture Lense
Drop in a recording and get back a corrected transcript, chapters, notes, and a chat that answers with the timestamp it read the answer from.
- A ten-stage pipeline takes an hour of audio to notes, flashcards, and a searchable index for about five cents.
- Every answer carries a timestamp that seeks the player, so a claim can be checked against the recording that produced it.
- Prompts are tested like code against a golden set, with CI failing the build when quality regresses.
Heckfree
A link-in-bio platform — one public profile carrying every link you have, with Passport-backed accounts and editable ordering.
- One handle, one lookup — the public profile route needs no session and no join.
- Ordering stored on the document so the order you drag into is the order the page renders.
- Passport-backed accounts behind the edit surface, public pages in front of it.
Coscholars
An ed-tech platform built end to end during an internship — student and tutor dashboards, in-app chat and video, Stripe Connect payouts, and progress tracking in one codebase.
- Student and tutor dashboards over one shared session and data layer, in a single Express app.
- Stripe Connect for the marketplace half so the platform records entitlement and never holds funds.
- Chat and video in-app so the lesson never has to move to another tool.
Jssconnect
A campus platform where engineering students find every study resource in one place — contribute, moderate, and publish, built on the MERN stack.
- Students browse and contribute study resources, and every contribution is moderated before it goes live.
- Blog posts alongside resources so notes and write-ups live in the same place as the material.
- Passport-backed sign-in with the resource graph stored in MongoDB.

Passport.js auth patterns I keep reaching for
Four projects in, the same Passport setup keeps showing up — local plus Google plus Facebook, sessions in Mongo, and the redirect edge cases nobody documents.
