Additionally, I am well-versed in the latest industry practices, including continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD), DevOps, and container orchestration. I've solved more than 1000 coding problems on platforms like Leetcode, Codeforces and have a decent grip over DS & ALGO. Apart from it I have deep knowledge of Python, C++, C, AWS SQS, HLD, LLD, Sanic, SQL databases and Caches .
