Software Engineering Intern

Aditya Birla Group · Ujjain, India

• Built a supply chain management platform using Spring Boot, implementing transaction processing and request queuing to reliably handle 500K+ transactions from multiple upstream sources.
• Designed validation pipelines and fault recovery mechanisms to ensure data integrity and system resilience under high-volume transaction loads.
• Developed a scalable frontend using React and TypeScript, leveraging Context API for global state management and reusable component architecture, enabling dynamic workflows and seamless real-time interaction with the backend.
• Integrated PostgreSQL for structured supply chain data, wrote unit tests using JUnit, verified concurrent transaction handling, tracked test coverage with JaCoCo, and validated APIs using Postman.
• Dockerized the system for consistent, environment-agnostic deployments and deployed services on AWS, using Amazon RDS for data persistence and AWS Lambda for serverless request handling.
