I build systems that scale.

I hold an M.S. in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Florida and work across backend, full-stack, cloud, and developer tooling. Open to full-time software engineering roles.

Available for SWE rolesGainesville, FL ·

I'm Vishnu Vivek Valeti, a software engineer with an M.S. in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Florida. I build scalable, production-ready systems across backend services, data pipelines, full-stack applications, and developer tools.

At ReplyQuick, I shipped 8 versioned FastAPI endpoints, cut environment setup from 2 hours to under 30 minutes, processed 5,000+ dental images through a validated Python ingestion pipeline, and reduced reviewer analysis time by 30%. At UF, I reduced API p95 latency from 900ms to 280ms and research query latency by 35%. My projects span reliable webhook delivery, API release gating, and multithreaded C++ code search.

What I work with

  • Backend APIs with FastAPI, Node.js, Express.js, gRPC, and REST
  • Full-stack systems with React, TypeScript, Go, PostgreSQL, and MySQL
  • Data pipelines with Python, AWS, PostgreSQL, and Docker
  • Cloud & DevOps with AWS, Cloudflare, Kubernetes, Terraform, and CI/CD
  • Developer tooling and observability with C++17, Redis, Prometheus, and Grafana

  1. Software Engineer Intern

    ReplyQuick LLC

    Gainesville, FL
    PythonFastAPIPydanticPostgreSQLDocker

    Shipped 8 versioned REST API endpoints in FastAPI with typed Pydantic schemas, standardizing response contracts across integrations and removing the need for client-side validation patches. Reduced new-environment setup time from 2 hours to under 30 minutes by standardizing Dockerfiles, environment configuration templates, and centralized logging for repeatable CI/CD deployments. Processed 5,000+ dental images through a Python ingestion pipeline with schema validation and structured error reports that exposed failed records with full diagnostic context. Cut reviewer analysis time by 30% by storing image-processing metrics in PostgreSQL and generating run-over-run comparison reports that enabled quality tracking across pipeline runs.

  2. Graduate Student Assistant

    University of Florida

    Gainesville, FL
    PythonFastAPIAWSPostgreSQLDocker

    Built an EC2-hosted pipeline to ingest research datasets from Amazon S3 into PostgreSQL, cutting query latency by 35% through composite indexing and table partitioning. Optimized Dockerized FastAPI services by tuning PostgreSQL queries and implementing connection pooling, reducing p95 response latency from 900ms to 280ms. Built a React/FastAPI analytics dashboard with reusable visualizations for dataset size, labels, and ingestion status, cutting weekly research reporting overhead by 30%.

  3. Software Development Intern

    Vignan University

    Guntur, India
    ReactNode.jsMySQLOAuth 2.0RBAC

    Delivered feature enhancements and resolved defects across attendance and staff-management modules for a React, Node.js, MySQL academic portal serving 2,500+ DAU. Saved ~40 staff hours per week across 5 departments by building mark-all and quick-edit attendance workflows, eliminating repetitive per-student updates. Cut portal page-load time from 3.2s to 1.0s by adding targeted MySQL indexes and refactoring inefficient multi-table JOIN queries across attendance and staff workflows. Secured grade and results endpoints with RBAC and OAuth 2.0, blocking unauthorized access paths identified during pre-launch testing.
