Hello, I’mDikshant Singh

Software Engineer•Building systems across the stack - frontend to protocol-level.

Hi, I'm Dikshant — a Software Development Engineer based in Pune with 2+ years of experience shipping production software, from real-time web apps in TypeScript, React.js to low-level protocol code in C and Python. Currently an SDE at Chainscore Labs, and actively looking for SDE / Software Engineer roles focused on backend, distributed systems, or systems software.

My dev story — full-stack craft, end to end

A curious builder blending full-stack craft with blockchain systems.

Hi, I'm Dikshant 👋

I'm a Software Development Engineer based in Pune, India, with around 1.5 years of full-time engineering experience. I currently work at Chainscore Labs, where I started as an intern and now contribute as a full-time SDE.

My day-to-day spans the full stack — and goes a few layers below it. I've built complete trading frontends in Next.js / React / TypeScript, shipped Node.js / Express APIs with WebSocket services supporting thousands of concurrent users, and currently work on lower-level systems: architecting computational pipelines and consensus mechanisms in Python, and contributing to a high-performance SDK in C for a decentralized compute protocol (JAM, in the Polkadot ecosystem).

Less than any single domain, what pulls me in are problems where correctness, performance, and concurrency actually matter — APIs under load, real-time data, networking, protocols, virtual machines.

Outside of work

Working through System Design problems (LLD + HLD) in C++ and Go
Building side projects to learn distributed systems internals — most recently Quiver, a QUIC-native pub/sub message broker written from scratch in Python
Solving competitive programming problems on LeetCode (350+ solved)

🚀 Currently open to SDE / SDE-2 / Software Engineer roles — especially ones focused on backend, distributed systems, networking, or systems software. If you're hiring or know of a fit, I'd love to hear from you.
