Hi, I am

Gautam Naik

Frontend Developer @ Kaara Tech

About Me

With over 8 years of experience as a Frontend and UI Developer, I have a proven track record of delivering high-quality user interfaces that are intuitive, responsive, and visually appealing. I am proficient in implementing frontend systems using the latest technologies, such as ReactJS, NextJS, Redux, Typescript, JavaScript, ES6, and CSS.

I am able to work collaboratively with UX/UI teams and stakeholders to translate functional specifications into seamless user experiences. I believe in building interfaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also highly functional, with a focus on usability and accessibility.

One of my key strengths is building multi-platform websites that are optimized for different devices using responsive web design. I understand the importance of ensuring that websites are accessible and user-friendly, regardless of the platform or device being used.

What sets me apart from others is my working knowledge of backend technologies, such as Python, NodeJS, Fast API, MySQL and DynamoDB. I am also proficient in building serverless applications using AWS Lambda and deploying them using AWS Cloud Development Kit.

Overall, I am a detail-oriented engineer with a passion for creating exceptional user experiences that meet the highest standards of quality and performance.
