Projects
Things I've built, shipped, and learned from.
Distributed Job Scheduler
A multi-tenant job queue and scheduling system built with Fastify, BullMQ, PostgreSQL, and Redis. It lets teams submit background jobs, schedule recurring tasks via cron, and monitor execution all behind a secure dual-auth API. Containerized the full stack using Docker and Docker Compose, configured Nginx as a reverse proxy, and built a GitHub Actions CI pipeline with automated linting, database migrations, and 10 integration tests running against live Postgres and Redis service containers.

SaaS Team Workspace Api
Enterprise-grade multi-tenant REST API with role-based access control, JWT authentication, and token refresh rotation. Built for SaaS platforms handling team collaboration at scale.

A little bit about me and what I bring to the table.
I’m Riya Kaurav, a 2nd-year engineering student at Mits Gwalior passionate about full-stack development, backend systems, and building products that solve real problems. I enjoy turning ideas into functional experiences while constantly learning through projects, hackathons, and experimentation. Outside of tech, I write poetry a different way of expressing creativity and perspective. Currently open to internships, freelance work, collaborations, hackathons, and opportunities where I can learn, contribute, and build meaningful things.
