Hi, I am Harshith Pabbati

A full-stack engineer building scalable, performant, and intuitive web apps. With over 3 years of experience in designing, developing, and deploying web applications in NextJS, ReactJS, Django, GraphQL, Node, and Express, I enjoy both the complexity of solving hard problems and the simplicity of building clean interfaces.
