About

Gunakarthik Naidu Lanka

I'm Gunakarthik Naidu Lanka — an MSCS 2025 graduate (GPA 4.0) with 4+ years of software development practice. I specialize in architecting distributed systems, autonomous agentic workflows, and high-performance backend microservices. My engineering philosophy is simple: Show > Tell.

At Velocity Tech (Zinio TalentHub), I engineered high-concurrency microservices in FastAPI and Spring Boot for a hiring platform serving 5,000+ monthly active users, built an NLP parsing engine that cut manual overhead by 70%, and drove a 45% reduction in p99 database latency through advanced PostgreSQL indexing and schema refactoring.

During my Full Stack Internship with EPICS (Foster Arizona), I delivered a real-time data sync layer with WebSockets and Redis, built React + Python REST API features for a statewide resource directory, and resolved 20+ production-blocking bugs ahead of launch.

Outside of work, I build local-first AI tools — autonomous browser agents, GGUF-quantized inference engines, and VIN evaluation platforms — with a focus on data sovereignty and zero-cloud architecture. I also served as a Teaching Assistant at ASU, mentoring students in DSA, OOP, and software engineering fundamentals.
