At the core, I build scalable, cloud-native systems that power data-driven platforms. From designing serverless architectures to fine-tuning backend workflows, I turn complex requirements into elegant, production-ready solutions.
Hey there! I’m Puniith — a self-driven developer with over six years of hands-on experience in full-stack development, data engineering, and cloud infrastructure. I’ve worked across startups and enterprise projects, turning large-scale business requirements into scalable, efficient systems.
I didn’t start in a corner office — I started in a dorm room, building passion projects late into the night. Since then, I’ve written hundreds of thousands of lines of code, automated workflows, wrangled cloud services, and delivered solutions for major clients in finance, retail, and hospitality.
Contrary to what people think, backend devs do care about clean design — just in the architecture, not the font choices.
Established history of success in design and development, consistently delivering valuable insights and driving significant results.

Developed and delivered enterprise-grade loyalty platforms for major global brands including 7-Eleven, MGM Resorts, Speedway, and Marriott Bonvoy. Worked across the MEAN and MERN stacks, architecting scalable solutions and driving cloud-native development using AWS services, CI/CD pipelines, and modern JavaScript frameworks. Played a pivotal role in client onboarding, product development, and long-term platform stability during a high-growth phase.
Built a customer-facing Member Self-Service Portal (MSSP) as an extension of the internal Member Care Portal (MCP). Redesigned MCP in React, integrated loyalty management modules, and streamlined reward point operations for both customers and support staff.
Tech Stack: React.js, Node.js, MongoDB, Express.js, AWS Lambda, S3, API Gateway, SES
Led Speedway’s end-to-end onboarding to our loyalty platform. Designed batch ingestion pipelines, reusable DBMod scripts, and custom ID transformers to convert 13-digit legacy loyalty IDs to a standardized 11-digit format. Ensured zero-downtime data migration with robust validation, testing, and failover design.
Started by maintaining and enhancing existing sales and marketing applications, and later led the development of a scalable, sustainability-driven onboarding portal and Green E-Commerce Platform. I built new web applications using Next.js and Node.js, engineered a serverless backend architecture using AWS Lambda, and deployed solutions through Amazon S3 and DynamoDB. To streamline internal workflows, I created an Excel-to-DynamoDB integration that automated inventory updates, improving operational efficiency. I also developed a self-service onboarding tool tailored for sustainable brands and built an automated email marketing system to optimize campaign outreach. This role offered hands-on exposure to full-stack development, cloud-native systems, and sustainable tech practices, all delivered within an Agile Scrum environment. Key Achievements:
Tech Stack: Next.js, Node.js, AWS Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, GIT, JSON, Agile Scrum.
AIEdge Technologies Private Limited logo Software Developer As a Software Developer Intern, I gained extensive experience in building innovative applications using AI and ML technologies. My responsibilities included front-end development, dashboard creation, and integrating advanced AI tools such as Tesseract OCR for text recognition and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). I also designed an ad-hoc data loading solution to optimize data handling processes, contributing to the efficiency and scalability of the applications. This internship provided valuable exposure to end-to-end software development in a professional, product-focused environment. Our team's accomplishments were highlighted in SwiftnLift Business Magazine's October 2019 issue, where AI Edge was proudly recognized as one of the "10 Most Promising Startups of 2019." This acknowledgment underscores the innovation and impact of our contributions. To further illustrate this recognition, I have included images of the article in my portfolio, showcasing the significance and success of our work.
As a summer intern at PacketPrep, I developed comprehensive expertise in full-stack web development by designing and implementing web applications from the ground up. My responsibilities encompassed crafting user-friendly interfaces, integrating databases efficiently, and leveraging modern frameworks to deliver robust and scalable solutions.
From enterprise data pipelines to dynamic web platforms, here's a look at the solutions I have helped design, build, and scale across various industries.
Designed and implemented AWS Lambda-based pipelines to ingest and transform mortgage data from internal teams and FHFA institutions like Freddie Mac and Ginnie Mae. Integrated the transformed data into RDS, Glue, and DynamoDB with attribute-based logic, ensuring seamless downstream availability.
Developed and maintained Python-based microservices, leveraging AWS services like Lambda, Redshift, and EMR. Built CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins and CodeBuild. Ensured backend scalability, fault tolerance, and minimal-latency processing across daily, monthly, and annual data jobs.
Led the data migration initiative for legacy-to-modern systems. Designed YAML-based transformations, managed SQL pipelines, and streamlined deployment using AWS CodePipeline. Migrated product and user data while reducing downtime and improving integrity.
Built intelligent dashboards using AI and Tesseract OCR. Integrated CNNs for image recognition and data extraction. Delivered real-time analysis tools and contributed to startup innovation recognized by SwiftnLift Business Magazine.
