Afzal Khan is a software engineer with five years of practical experience, currently working as a Software Development Engineer at Amazon after completing an SDE internship there. He has strong front-end chops demonstrated by contributions to Oppia during Google Summer of Code ’24, where he improved UI/UX, added features like unpublished-exploration banners, and fixed navigation and alignment issues in a widely used open-source learning platform. Afzal has interned as a frontend engineer at Zenskar and taught as a TA at 100xDevs, showing a blend of production experience and mentorship. Based in Delhi and studying Information Technology at Maharaja Agrasen Institute of Technology, he moves comfortably between TypeScript/JavaScript code and product-focused front-end work. Less obvious: he repeatedly lands in roles that combine building user-facing features with improving developer-facing infrastructure, indicating a knack for balancing usability with maintainability.
