BUILDING PRODUCTS THAT FEEL FAST, SHARP, AND UNMISTAKABLE.
Full-stack engineer focused on web architecture, AI tooling, and shipping practical software.
Hi, I'm Shivam Shahi (@Shivamshahi77) a Full Stack Developer from India.
I recently graduated with a major in Computer Science and a Specialization in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning from New Delhi, India. I am currently working as an SDE 1 at Farben.
ResumeAbout Me
Hi, I'm Shivam. I'm a product-minded Software Engineer focused on building scalable, high-performance applications and robust system architectures.
I specialize in bridging the gap between complex backend infrastructure and seamless user experiences, with expertise spanning hybrid-cloud systems, real-time architectures, and modern web frameworks.
As an early-stage engineering hire, I thrive in fast-paced environments where I can take ownership of end-to-end product delivery—from orchestrating data pipelines to shipping polished user interfaces.
Beyond coding, you’ll find me listening to Music🎵 or playing Soccer ⚽️, which adds a touch of balance and inspiration to my life outside of programming. Besides tweeting about what I learn from my day job, I also post memes on my X handle. @Shivamshahi77

Open Source Contributions
I actively engage with the open-source community, focusing on meaningful technical contributions rather than trivial documentation changes. Working on complex codebases has been instrumental in refining my system design intuition.
Early on, I gravitated toward projects like the 100xdevs Organization. Collaborating with a global developer ecosystem accelerated my growth in architecting scalable solutions.
Impactful PR Merged
Making core contributions to high-traffic repositories taught me the nuances of maintaining production-grade software.
Community Recognition
Receiving financial bounties for feature development was early validation of my ability to deliver immediate value to established products.
Recent Contribution: AdenHQ Hive
Recently, one of my PRs was merged in AdenHQ's Hive (a YC W20-backed open-source project with around 9k GitHub stars), where I contributed Razorpay integration improvements for payments.
