Hi, I'm Himadri.
Software Engineer
I build real-world software, explore AI and backend systems, and document my journey in technology.
Building across the stack.
I enjoy turning ideas into real software—from backend systems and full-stack applications to AI-powered products.
Software Engineering
Building reliable software and learning how real-world systems are designed.
Backend Engineering
Building APIs, working with databases, authentication, and scalable backend systems.
AI Engineering
Exploring LLMs, RAG, AI applications, and practical ways to build with AI.
Full-Stack Development
Turning ideas into complete products across frontend, backend, and infrastructure.
Building in Public
Sharing projects, lessons, mistakes, and the journey of becoming a better engineer.
Career & Job Preparation
Helping students and aspiring developers prepare for interviews, build projects, and land their first tech job.
Featured Projects
A selection of real-world projects I've built. Each represents learning, impact, and best practices.
E-Court Management System
ActiveA digital court management platform for managing cases, hearings, judges, lawyers, clerks, and legal documents in a centralized system. The system provides role-based access control, case tracking, hearing management & document handling, and judgment records, with plans to introduce AI-powered legal assistance in future phases.
RAG Chatbot - Intelligent Domain-Specific Assistant
ActiveA complete full-stack Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system with modern web interface and intelligent backend, delivering specialized AI assistance across multiple domains.
YouTube Channel
Technical content on software engineering, AI, backend systems, and my developer journey.
RAG Explained: Building AI-Powered Q&A Systems
Deep dive into Retrieval-Augmented Generation and how to build LLM applications that actually know your data.

My Learning Journey
A timeline of my growth as a software engineer and content creator.
Started B.Tech in Computer Science
Began my B.Tech in Computer Science & Engineering in Kolkata, India.
Building Programming Foundations
Started with C programming and console-based projects, then went deeper into Java while exploring HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to build a strong foundation in software and web development.
Going Full-Stack
Started building and deploying full-stack applications with React.js and Express.js while strengthening my foundation in Data Structures and Algorithms.
Backend Engineering & AI
Went deeper into backend engineering with Java, Spring Boot, SQL databases, Docker, and system fundamentals while exploring AI, LLM integrations, and modern backend technologies.
From Learning to Industry
Focused on DSA, competitive programming, and placement preparation, leading to a TCS Digital offer and marking the transition from learning and building toward a professional software engineering career.
Let's Build Something Together
I'm always interested in collaborating on projects, discussing technology, or just connecting with fellow builders and developers.
