Hi, I'm Nivekithan S

I'm a backend developer with 3 years of experience, currently working at epyc.in . I mainly work with Node.js/Cloudflare Workers using TypeScript, and PostgreSQL for databases.

While I consider myself a backend developer, I also help with frontend tasks - from restructuring React code to minimize rendering, removing unnecessary useEffects , and ensuring React Query revalidation works properly.
