Mayank
Panchal.

Full-Stack & Backend Engineer bridging the gap between elegant interfaces and robust systems.

I build production web applications end to end - a typed Next.js interface on top, an async FastAPI and PostgreSQL service underneath, and the Docker container on AWS that carries both to a URL.

A short list of things I have helped ship.

Enterprise dashboards, event platforms, studio websites - a cross-section of the last four years.

02Approach

I build production web apps end-to-end - Next.js on top, FastAPI + PostgreSQL underneath.

Full Stack Developer based in Bengaluru with 4+ years of experience shipping production web applications end-to-end. Comfortable owning a feature all the way through - from PostgreSQL schema, to async FastAPI + Pydantic APIs, to a type-safe Next.js UI, to a Docker container on AWS EC2 behind Nginx.
On the frontend I build with Next.js (App Router), React.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind - with deep experience in state (Redux, Zustand, Context) and performance work (Core Web Vitals up ~30% via lazy loading, code splitting, memoization, bundle work). On the backend I design async REST APIs with FastAPI + Pydantic + SQLAlchemy, secured with JWT and role-based access control, backed by PostgreSQL and Redis, with Celery for background jobs and WebSockets for real-time surfaces.
I lean heavily on AI-augmented workflows - Cursor, Claude Code, Devin (Windsurf), Kiro, Antigravity, Copilot, ChatGPT, Ollama - for implementation, debugging, refactoring, documentation, and code review. AI is a force multiplier, not a substitute for engineering judgement; I verify what it produces and keep humans in the loop.
  1. 01

    Own it end-to-end

    Schema → API → UI → container → prod URL. One engineer, one pull request, one deploy.

  2. 02

    Human-in-the-loop AI

    AI accelerates the boring parts. I still read the diff, run the tests, and own the outcome.

  3. 03

    Performance is a feature

    Core Web Vitals, bundle budgets, async-first APIs, cached queries - shipped features, not afterthoughts.

  4. 04

    Boring, obvious code

    Small components. Typed contracts. Pydantic on the way in, SQLAlchemy on the way down. No premature abstractions.

03Toolkit

What I reach for, day to day.

Grounded in Python and TypeScript, with enough backend, infrastructure, and AI tooling to own a feature from schema to production URL.
