Personal portfolio showcasing my work and expertise. Fully customizable and modern.
I am Rakesh Nandakumar, a software engineer with over 3 years of experience. I began as a freelancer, building web apps, mobile apps, IoT solutions, and cloud-based systems. Later, I joined WebRubix, a Canadian consulting company, where I worked remotely on international projects, expanding my expertise in .NET, React, Node.js, and cloud-first systems while delivering production-ready applications.
I then moved to Procons Infotech, developing enterprise-level solutions for government contracts. My work there involved Laravel, React, Vue, AWS, and React Native, often in high-performance, large-scale environments where security, scalability, and clean architecture were essential.
I don’t limit myself to a single stack—I choose the right tools for the problem. With a deep understanding of technology, I move easily between frameworks. What sets me apart is my ability to combine hands-on coding with big-picture thinking: aligning system design with business goals, long-term growth, and real-world impact. I can switch seamlessly between technical problem solving and architectural strategy, ensuring I deliver not just solutions, but the right solutions. Beyond tech, I excel at communication—translating ideas into scalable software, leading projects end-to-end, and driving initiatives with speed and precision. In short, I don’t just build software—I build trust, confidence, and systems people say are exactly what they needed.
