About

Hi, I'm Pratik Anand, a recent B.Tech graduate in Electronics and Communication Engineering from National Institute of Technology, Patna, with a solid academic record and a CGPA of 8.7. My journey in the tech sphere has been diverse and enriching, with hands-on experience in software development and problem-solving. As a Software Engineer Intern at Intuit, I explored migrating from an older tech stack to newer alternatives. I developed a custom saga library and used Kafka for eventing. During my role as a Problem Setter Intern at Geeks for Geeks, I honed my skills in creating and refining complex problems for competitive programming platforms. My technical abilities are complemented by strong soft skills, especially in public speaking, and I am knowledgeable in OOP, Java, and Data Structures. I thrive in competitive programming, holding prestigious rankings and achievements on platforms like Codeforces, Leetcode, and Codechef. ◆Technical Skills: > Languages: C++, Java > Frameworks: SpringBoot > Developer Tools: VS Code, Atom > Databases: SQL > Other Skills: Public Speaking ◆ Key Achievements: > Expert on Codeforces and Guardian on Leetcode. > Secured first place in CodeNight NIT Patna. > Obtained top global ranks in various competitive programming contests. > Awarded first position in Designerella, a design contest by hackslash at NIT Patna.
