About me

I'm Dhruv Patel, a Software Developer based in Toronto. I build production-grade web applications using JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, and Java — across frontend, backend, cloud infrastructure, and developer tooling.

I'm proficient in React, Next.js, and Tailwind on the frontend, and Node.js, Express, Fastify, Django, and Flask on the backend. I design and consume RESTful APIs with JWT auth, RBAC, and SSE. I deploy on AWS and GCP using Docker, Kubernetes, and GitHub Actions.

Completed an Advanced Diploma in Computer Programming and Analysis at Seneca College in April 2026. Holds four industry certifications — IBM Full Stack Software Developer, Google Cloud Database Engineer, Google IT Support, and Microsoft 365 Fundamentals. Actively looking for junior and internship roles.
