# Shradha Hirve > Actively seeking full-time SWE roles | Software Engineer | FSU Class of 2025 | #GHC2024 Location: Santa Clara, California, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/shradhahirve I am Shradha, a passionate Software Engineer with 4 years of experience in full-stack development, scalable software solutions, and system design. Having recently earned my Master’s in Computer Science from Florida State University (Class of 2025), I’m now actively seeking opportunities to contribute and grow as a software engineer. My journey into software engineering began as a Software Test Engineer, where curiosity led me from testing to development. That experience inspired me to upskill through a Post Graduate Diploma in Advanced Computing, launching my transition into full-stack development. Over the past several years, I have worked on high-impact projects that span healthcare, space exploration, and academic research. This journey has helped me strengthen my skills in designing and developing real-world applications. During my master’s, I developed interactive user interfaces for a cancer knowledge graph web app using React 17 and TypeScript, enabling researchers to classify cancer mechanisms and interact seamlessly with complex cancer data. I also built a real-time space exploration platform and designed a healthcare automation tool that saved clinicians valuable time. Driven by a passion for making technology accessible and impactful, I thrive on integrating front-end and back-end solutions that simplify lives and bridge gaps. I aim to contribute as a full-stack developer on innovative projects that drive real-world change, leveraging my skills in Python, Django, React, Angular, SQL, and TypeScript, while continuously learning new technologies and growing as a software engineer. ## Work Experience ### Software Developer @ Community Dreams Foundation Jan 2025 – Present Designing an AI-powered journaling interface using React and TypeScript, allowing users to submit entries and receive LLM-generated summaries and affirmations within 3 seconds, resolving UI defects, reducing reflection time, and boosting journaling frequency by 40%.
