# Shlok Pikle > Software Engineer | Backend & Cloud · LLMs | Django · Node.js · AWS · Kubernetes Location: New York City Metropolitan Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/shlokpikle 🚨GitHub: https://github.com/ShlokP07 Hi, I'm Shlok — a Computer Science graduate with a passion for building scalable, reliable software products from the ground up. My core strength has been backend and cloud engineering. I built robust REST APIs and microservices using Python frameworks like FastAPI and Django, as well as Node.js, and took those services all the way from local development to production-grade cloud deployments on AWS and Azure. I worked heavily with Docker and Kubernetes to containerize and orchestrate applications, and used Terraform to manage infrastructure as code. On the data side, I've worked with both relational and NoSQL databases — PostgreSQL, MongoDB, DynamoDB — and leaned on Redis and message brokers like Kafka and RabbitMQ to build systems that stayed fast and resilient under load. I also have a solid foundation in ML and deep learning, having worked with PyTorch and TensorFlow to build models that went beyond experimentation and integrated directly into production pipelines. I've always cared about the full product lifecycle — writing clean, testable code, automating CI/CD workflows with tools like GitHub Actions and Jenkins, and building systems that teams could confidently scale and maintain over time. I'm always looking to connect with engineers and builders working on problems worth solving. ## Work Experience ### Software Engineer @ Saayam For All Jan 2026 – Present ### Intern @ Sodexo Jan 2024 – Jan 2025 | Binghamton, New York, United States ### Software Engineer @ Northakross Technologies Jan 2022 – Jan 2023 | Mumbai, Maharashtra, India ### Machine Learning Intern @ OpenTurf Technologies Jan 2021 – Jan 2022 Engineered a Siamese Neural Network with a BERT-pretrained backbone, increasing critical information extraction accuracy by 8% on 2,500 untrained invoices. Optimized data extraction by integrating an OCR model with a statistical classifier, achieving 86% accuracy in information categorization. Deployed the framework using FASTAPI, improving accessibility for 15,000+ users by optimizing performance, reducing latency, and enabling real-time data processing. ## Education ### Master of Science - MS in Computer Science Thomas J.
