Shameek Poddar is a seasoned full-stack software engineer with 11 years’ experience building and modernizing web applications across frontend and backend stacks.

His toolkit spans React/Redux, Backbone, Node.js, Groovy/Grails, Spring Boot, Flask, and Rails, with proven experience across SQL Server and PostgreSQL.
