Hi, I'm Ananta Sharma
Three years building and shipping production web applications — across two company roles, internships, and freelance work for international clients on Upwork and Fiverr.
My stack: NestJS, Express.js & Node.js on the back end, Next.js & React on the front. I've led projects end-to-end and worked inside teams with proper code review cycles.
I care about code that's easy to read later, APIs that behave predictably, and systems that hold up when things get busy in production.

About Me
Who I Am
I'm a backend developer with three years of building and shipping production web applications — across two company roles, a couple of internships, and freelance work for international clients on Upwork and Fiverr.
My day-to-day is Node.js, NestJS, and Express.js on the back end, Next.js and React on the front. I've led projects end-to-end on my own and worked inside teams with proper code review cycles.
I care about code that's easy to read later, APIs that behave predictably, and systems that hold up when things get busy in production. Currently President of the Tech Research and Innovation Club at PNC.
My Skills
Experience & Education
My professional journey and educational background
Tech lead for multiple client projects — handled architecture decisions, kept the codebase sane, and made sure things actually shipped. NestJS on the backend, Next.js on the front, deployed on Linux VPS with Nginx and PM2. Juggling 3–4 projects at once means you get good at prioritizing fast.
Part-time but fully involved — built backend APIs in NestJS, wrote Prisma queries for MySQL and MongoDB, and shipped frontend features in Next.js. Sat in on code reviews and architecture discussions, which is where you learn a lot of things the docs don't tell you.
Delivered full-stack projects for international clients — scoping, API development, frontend build, database design, deployment, and handoff. Handled the full client relationship: understanding requirements, communicating progress, and adapting when scope shifted.
Ongoing client work across backend APIs, Next.js full-stack applications, e-commerce builds, and third-party integrations. Kept client relationships strong through consistent quality and honest communication — repeat business reflects that.
Built backend features in NestJS with PostgreSQL and Prisma ORM; developed frontend pages in Next.js with Tailwind CSS. Working alongside senior engineers in proper code review cycles was genuinely useful — you catch things in other people's code that you've stopped noticing in your own.
Built full-stack features and improved performance on existing client websites. Working in a codebase you didn't write from scratch teaches you to read code before you change it.
Organised hackathons, tech talks, and workshops for students and industry professionals — turns out running events is its own skill set.
