Sugata Ray Chaudhury

I ship products end to end — and I run the infrastructure that keeps them up. Full-stack, mobile, machine learning, and live infrastructure — Nginx, AWS, Jenkins, and Cloudflare in production.

DevOps

2026

Production infra & CI/CD

Hostinger VPS and AWS Ubuntu servers behind Nginx reverse proxy and IP-based load balancing. React served as static files, SSL/DNS on Cloudflare, Jenkins deploying on GitHub push. Restored a production outage by rerouting traffic and adding AWS capacity.

SamayPaal

SAMAYPAL - AMS/KPA: smart attendance for Eastern Railway Workshop KPA with AI face recognition and GPS geofencing. When a production server outage hit under load, I rerouted traffic through Nginx load balancing and spun up additional AWS servers to restore availability — keeping the app live for 5K+ Google Play users.

About

Data science roots. Product shipping. Production DevOps.

Software engineer with a Data Science background and hands-on experience across full-stack web, mobile apps and production DevOps. I have shipped software from architecture through release, and I currently manage live infrastructure: Ubuntu servers, Nginx, AWS, Cloudflare, and Jenkins CI/CD.

I like the whole path: architecture, UI, APIs, release builds, and the servers that keep those releases healthy. If you are hiring for a builder who already operates production infrastructure and wants to go deeper, I want to talk.

Experience

From intern to shipping engineer.

  1. Software Engineer · Freelancerguys

    January 2026 – PresentNow

    • Managed production infrastructure across Hostinger VPS and AWS (Ubuntu) for a full-stack application, handling server provisioning, configuration, and troubleshooting.
    • Configured Nginx as a reverse proxy for a Node.js backend and set up IP-based load balancing across multiple servers to improve reliability and handle traffic distribution.
    • Served the React production build as static files via Nginx; managed SSL and DNS through Cloudflare for secure, reliable domain access.
    • Built a CI/CD pipeline using Jenkins triggered by GitHub webhooks on push, executing a deployment bash script with scoped passwordless sudo access (via visudo) to enforce least-privilege security.
    • Resolved a production server outage by rerouting traffic through Nginx load balancing and provisioning additional AWS servers to restore availability under load.
    • Built and shipped SamayPaal (SAMAYPAL - AMS/KPA) — a live app-based geofencing attendance system for Eastern Railway Workshop KPA, with AI face recognition, GPS verification, OTP authentication, and role-based employee/admin flows.
    • Designed full-screen error UX for SamayPaal attendance and authentication failures to improve reliability and user clarity.
    • Prepared Android and iOS release builds for store distribution.
  2. Software Engineer · Barracks Buddy

    January 2025 – December 2025

    • Developed and maintained the live Barracks Buddy learning platform across frontend and backend.
