# Sivakumar Sankareswaran > Software Engineer @ LOCOMeX | MS Computer Science and Engineering @ New York University Location: Brooklyn, New York, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/sivakumar As a passionate and innovative Software Development Engineer, I bring a strong foundation in Computer Science and Engineering with a focus on full-stack development, cloud-native applications, and AI-powered solutions. Currently completing my Master of Science in Computer Science at New York University, I specialize in building scalable systems, distributed architectures, and intelligent applications that merge cutting-edge technology with real-world impact. Throughout my academic and professional journey, I’ve consistently demonstrated my ability to deliver impactful solutions. My work includes building an automated risk reporting system with Django and PostgreSQL that reduced reporting time from 1 hour to under 1 minute, developing a Llama 3–powered chatbot integrated with Supabase and Request Tracker that cut customer support response times by 20%, and deploying low-latency search features on AWS Lambda that improved query performance by 70%. In addition to project work, I’ve contributed to both infrastructure and product engineering, from setting up scalable cloud environments with Docker/Kubernetes and Terraform to developing responsive UIs with React and TypeScript. My technical expertise spans Python, C++, Java, React, Django, Node.js, PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, AWS, and GCP. I am particularly interested in the intersection of scalable backend systems, cloud infrastructure, and AI applications, where I can continue to build reliable, user-focused products that make a measurable difference. ## Work Experience ### Software Engineer @ LOCOMeX, Inc.
