I'm Prachi Zala — Full Stack Developer @ Udaanworks and 6× Hackathon Team Leader. I engineer production-grade platforms with Python, TypeScript, FastAPI, and Next.js, alongside fault-tolerant distributed systems and applied ML intelligence.
I am a Full Stack Developer at Udaanworks in Ahmedabad, India, engineering scalable SaaS architectures, distributed backend workflows, and modern web applications with Python, TypeScript, FastAPI, and Next.js. Currently pursuing BCA at Shanti Business School (2024 to 2027) with a CGPA of 9.12, my development methodology combines production-grade testing, asynchronous system design, and verifiable systems.
A proven 6× Hackathon Team Leader, I have captained engineering squads across national and global arenas: leading Team CyberForge to 2nd Place at the SIH 2026 Internal Hackathon, and captaining teams at HACKCULT '26 (Team Believers • Dharohar 4D), Hackbriven (National Level, Ahmedabad • Qoneqt), VOYAGEHACK 4.0, VORTEX 2K26 Global AI Innovation Hackathon (Team Eklavya), and the Silver Oak University (SOU) Mini Hackathon (MathSprint).
Open source contributor to encode/starlette (the foundational ASGI framework powering FastAPI) with a focus on RFC 9110 specification compliance.

Production-ready asynchronous distributed task engine built with FastAPI, Celery, Redis, and PostgreSQL. Implements Redis sliding-window rate limiting, priority job queues (high/default/low), JWT RBAC authentication, exponential backoff retries, multi-container Docker Compose orchestration, and automated GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline with 100% automated test coverage.
Production-ready emergency dispatch and field triage system engineered for zero-connectivity disaster environments. Combines a Flutter mobile client featuring reactive local-first caching (Drift SQLite, Riverpod state management, OsmDroid offline map tiles) with an asynchronous FastAPI backend (Redis background queuing, Pydantic v2 schemas, automated bi-directional sync conflict resolution). Validated with an end-to-end GitHub Actions CI/CD workflow covering backend pytest and mobile integration testing.
An enterprise-grade Knowledge Graph RAG (GraphRAG) platform combining PostgreSQL (pgvector) dense search with Neo4j multi-hop graph reasoning and Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF). Eliminates hallucinations via strict citation provenance and supports zero-cost private inference via local Ollama containers.
Dual-factor biometric employee attendance platform combining OpenCV facial feature matching (64D vector comparison) with Haversine GPS geofencing (100m perimeter) to eliminate proxy check-ins and remote spoofing. Features an interactive Streamlit Web UI, real-time audit logging in SQLite, live workforce KPI analytics, single-click CSV report export, and an automated Pytest test suite.
Workforce intelligence study on 3,550 employee punch records over 90 days across 5 departments. Features a predictive XGBoost classifier (ROC-AUC 0.908) forecasting severe late arrivals (>15m) and an interactive Streamlit HR simulator demonstrating that a 15-minute flexible grace window reduces tardiness by 67.8% across departments.
A WebGL-powered 3D digital twin platform preserving historical monuments in interactive 4D space with dynamic time-travel lighting, architectural cross-sections, and spatial annotations built during HACKCULT '26.
Autonomous AI vertical video generation engine and publishing platform built during the premier national Hackbriven hackathon. Features coordinated multi-agent scripting (ResearchAgent → ScriptAgent → SceneDirector), Remotion studio canvas, procedural audio ducking, and an automated Viral Retention Scoring (0–100) & 1-Click Hook Optimizer.
High-intensity classroom speed-math competition platform with server-authoritative anti-cheat scoring, server-synchronized clocks, live teacher telemetry, and dual-layer Firebase RTDB + 2.5s smart polling synchronization.
