Open to software engineering roles

Sarbananda Taw

Software Engineer

I build software — and I understand the systems, networks, and infrastructure it runs on, top to bottom.

Identity

The short version

I’m a software engineer who likes understanding the whole stack — just as comfortable in application code as in a Linux shell, a Cisco config, or a deploy pipeline.

I gravitate to problems where seeing how the pieces fit together is the advantage. Currently completing an MCA and building browser-based scientific tooling.

Based in Noida, India.

Featured work

Software I've built

Selected projects, as engineering case studies — the problem, the approach, and what came out.

Browser-only gamma-ray spectroscopy

Nuclid

TypeScript
Vite
Vitest
Canvas

2026Live

Problem

Spectroscopy tools are desktop-bound and ship sensitive detector data to a server to analyze it.

Approach

A browser-only pipeline of pure, element-agnostic stage functions — load, condition, detect, fit, calibrate, identify, quantify, report — each independently testable, with data that never leaves the machine.

Result

A traceable analysis where every number ties back to its inputs; fail-loud stages throw instead of fabricating results. Live and in active development.

Interactive cryptography, from math to UI

CryptoDemos

Python
Streamlit
Cryptography

2023Live Source

Problem

Symmetric encryption is hard to learn because the transformations are invisible on paper.

Approach

An interactive Python + Streamlit app that runs AES, Vernam, and Feistel hybrid encryption step by step, wiring the cipher logic directly into a live front end.

Result

A hands-on teaching tool, deployed live — and the companion to my peer-reviewed SSRN paper on symmetric encryption algorithms.

Experience

Professional experience

Where I learned to run real systems — framed by the engineering skills it built.

IT Operations & Admin Intern · Project X (Startup)

Dec 2023 — Jul 2024

Jaipur, India

Handled the day-to-day infrastructure and operations that kept a startup team moving — the systems, accounts, automation, and reliability work behind engineering.

Linux
Automation
Infrastructure
Reliability
Networking
Deployment

Automation & tooling — built internal tools and SOPs that removed repetitive operational work.
Systems & reliability — provisioned and hardened workstations and configurations for the team.
Infrastructure & access — administered Google Workspace, cutting cost and improving data security.
Support & delivery — handled connectivity and IT support, documented workflows (Notion, Miro), and ran delivery through ClickUp.

Breadth

Beyond software

Hardware and research projects that sharpen how I build software.

Smart Respiratory Health Monitor

2025

India–Israel Hackathon 2025 finalist: an IoT + cloud + ML health-monitoring prototype. I led technical documentation and the UX workflow, and supported prototype assembly.

Parkwise — Smart Parking

2025

A low-cost, IoT-based smart-parking proof of concept. I owned hardware design — sensor integration and precise wiring — showing cheap hardware can solve a real problem.
