Building things
for the web.
Full Stack Software Engineer with 2+ years delivering scalable SaaS platforms, robust architectures, and production APIs using React, Next.js, NestJS, and PostgreSQL.

Building reliable software that ships.
I'm a Full Stack Software Engineer based in Uttar Pradesh, India with a proven history of shipping high-impact production SaaS platforms and REST APIs. I've engineered the architecture of a robust HRMS SaaS platform deployed across 10+ organizations, handling 1,000+ concurrent active profiles.
My wheelhouse bridges both application boundaries — going from fluid, responsive Next.js interfaces to complex NestJS asynchronous microservices and optimized PostgreSQL query indexes. I translate project specifications into pristine, performant web models.

Shantanu Paul — Full Stack Software Engineer.
Shantanu Paul is a Full Stack Software Engineer based in Uttar Pradesh, India, with over two years of professional experience designing and shipping production-grade web applications and mobile apps. He specializes in the modern JavaScript and TypeScript ecosystem — building everything from high-performance frontend interfaces with React and Next.js to robust backend APIs with NestJS, Node.js, and PostgreSQL.
As a MERN Stack and NestJS developer, Shantanu has led end-to-end development of multi-tenant SaaS platforms, including a full-featured HRMS (Human Resource Management System) currently deployed across more than ten client organizations. The platform covers employee onboarding, attendance tracking, leave management, and payroll processing — all secured with JWT-based authentication and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to protect sensitive multi-tenant data. His API architecture supports over 1,000 concurrent users through optimized PostgreSQL schema design and query planning.
On the frontend, Shantanu builds pixel-precise, accessible interfaces using Next.js App Router, Tailwind CSS, TanStack Query, Zustand, and Redux. He reduces page load times through careful bundle optimization, image processing, and server-side rendering strategies — achieving a 35% improvement in load performance across his recent production deployments. He also delivers cross-platform mobile applications using React Native with Nativewind, enabling teams to ship a single codebase to both iOS and Android.
Beyond the code, Shantanu brings a track record of solving real business problems. At E2X Infotech, he earned the Rising Star Award in January 2026 for leading the full-stack architecture of their flagship HRMS SaaS product. At Aieze, he received a Certificate of Recognition for engineering a facial recognition attendance system for the Government of Madhya Pradesh, serving over 500 employees with biometric verification APIs and a responsive React.js frontend. He also built a full-stack travel booking platform — FavoTrip — using NestJS, Angular, and PostgreSQL, reducing backend query time by 30% through query optimization and connection pooling.
Shantanu's technical foundation is complemented by strong software engineering principles: clean architecture, separation of concerns, TypeORM-managed migrations, Docker containerization, and CI/CD pipelines deployed to Vercel and Render. His database expertise spans both relational (PostgreSQL, MySQL) and document-based (MongoDB) paradigms, choosing the right tool for each project's requirements. He integrates real-time features using Socket.IO and analytics dashboards with Chart.js, and has worked with the OpenAI API to build AI-powered product features.
If you're looking to hire a Full Stack Developer in India who can own the entire product stack — from database schema to deployed interface — Shantanu is available for full-time engineering roles, freelance projects, and technical collaborations. He is proficient in TypeScript, JavaScript, and Python, and brings both the depth of an experienced backend engineer and the eye of a meticulous frontend developer to every project he joins.
