Saikat Roy
Software Engineer · Django Backend Developer · Shopify & WordPress Developer
Summary
I build the backends behind real-world commerce. I'm a backend-leaning full stack engineer. I build REST APIs and web applications with Python and Django, and pair them with React and Next.js frontends. Since 2020 I've worked on systems where software meets the physical world: the SnacKeeper smart vending network at Germania Holdings, and now the campus platform at YOUR Campus, which serves university students in Bangladesh with smart laundry, vending and e-commerce.
