Shubham Kumar

Hello, World! I am Shubham Kumar — a Computer Science undergraduate at Indian Institute of Information Technology Nagpur with a strong passion for competitive programming, problem-solving, and building impactful software solutions.

With achievements such as ICPC Regionalist’24, Expert on Codeforces (Top 2.5% in India), and 5★ on CodeChef (Top 1.5% in India), I thrive in tackling challenging algorithmic problems and pushing the boundaries of efficiency. I’ve solved 2000+ problems in CP and DSA, constantly sharpening my analytical and coding skills.

Beyond CP/DSA, I love creating innovative applications. Some of my key projects include:

• Momento — a modern, full-stack social media application built with the MERN stack. It features secure JWT authentication, a robust follow system, and full CRUD operations on posts. Performance is optimized with infinite scroll, debounced search, and client-side image compression.

• PDFPal — an AI-powered PDF chatbot using Next.js, PostgreSQL, Gemini, PineconeDB, and AWS S3, enabling real-time interaction with PDFs via natural language.

• Algorithm Visualizer — an interactive platform to learn sorting/searching algorithms with real-time animations and customizable learning controls.

I also lead the Google Developer Group (GDG) CP/DSA team at IIIT Nagpur, where I guide a community of 500+ students, conduct 50+ post-contest discussions, and actively promote competitive programming on campus.
