About

Harshith in casual wear

Backend systems. Node.js, Express, Socket.IO. Real-time architecture. DSA in Java every single day because consistency is the only philosophy I trust.

Contributed to Rocket.Chat's message-parser package. 3 PRs merged via batch PR #39853 with 10 contributors total. TypeScript, testing, edge cases.

Selected for NSoC 2026, GSSoC 2026, SSoC 2026. NSoC already has 7 PRs merged. Open source is interesting work. The rest doesn't matter.

Currently seeking backend internship for Summer/Fall 2026. If the problem is interesting, I'm listening.
