About Me
Hi, I'm Saloni Tilekar, a full-stack software engineer who enjoys building scalable applications with clean architecture, secure APIs, and responsive UI. I work across the stack — from backend systems and data pipelines to polished front-end experiences — and I care about software that performs and lasts. My experience spans backend optimization for a high-load healthcare system at Athenahealth, leading a small team on an AI-powered job platform at JobGrate, and shipping side projects with modern tooling. Whatever the layer, my focus stays on performance, security, and maintainability.
