CS undergrad in Dehradun who codes past midnight more often than I'd like to admit. I take half-formed ideas, figure out what actually matters, and ship software people end up relying on.

The list changes. The habit of reading the source code before the tutorial doesn't.

Ideas that made it out of the notes app

Some started as university projects, some started as “wait, why does this not exist yet?” I build them far enough to run into the real engineering problems.

GEHU Connect

Student Community & Networking Platform

College life has a strange habit of spreading itself across ten different group chats. GEHU Connect is our attempt to put some of it back in one place: people, communities, conversations and campus stuff, in one app.

Stack: React Native + Spring Boot backend, JWT student auth, community spaces.
Media Pipeline: Cloudflare R2 bucket with AWS S3-compatible client for zero-egress media storage.
Current State: In hands of active students at GEHU. Still fixing corner cases, which is the fun part.

A bit about me

Dehradun, India
Parth Khansali30.31° N, 78.03° E

I'm a CS undergrad at Graphic Era Hill University, Dehradun. I like the whole arc of building something: the messy first sketch, the ugly prototype, the “why is this breaking at 2am” debugging session, and eventually the moment it clicks and real people start depending on the thing.

Started with curiosity about how software actually works and followed it across mobile apps, web systems, AI, and database internals. I don't pretend to have it all figured out. Getting deeper into systems and understanding what happens under the hood is what keeps me going.

Outside of code, I run the university MUN club as Director General. Organizing a conference and shipping software have more in common than you'd think: tight deadlines, moving parts, and something always breaks five minutes before the important thing.

Currently Building

GEHU Connect (alpha with active university students) and ForgeFlow workflow automation. Plus whatever sparked curiosity this week.

Currently Learning

Backend depth, database internals, and systems fundamentals: the concepts that explain why things choke at scale.

Open To

Software engineering internships, research collaborations, and engineering problems that are deeper than they look.

Experience & Leadership

Beyond the code

Software isn't the only thing I spend time building.

Leadership2024 - Present

Director General

Graphic Era MUN Club

I direct the university MUN club: organizing campus conferences, mentoring delegates, handling logistics, and keeping things running when schedules inevitably shift.

  • Hosted 2 university-scale conferences
  • Coordinated outreach across 15+ partner schools and colleges
  • Participated in 4 regional MUNs with 2 delegate delegations awards
  • Delegated at IIT Roorkee MUN

“Organizing an event and debugging software have a lot in common: something will inevitably break right before the important moment, and you just work the problem.”

Sprints3 Hackathons

Hackathon Sprints

Hackaholic → iQOO Pune Hackathon

I love the intense sprint where an unvetted idea has to become a functional, deployed demo within 36 hours.

  • Hackaholic sprint to iQOO Pune Hackathon finals
  • Rapid prototyping, aggressive feature scoping, and shipping functional backends under strict time limits
  • Collaborated across multidisciplinary student teams under pressure
Academics2024 - 2028

B.Tech Computer Science & Engineering

Graphic Era Hill University, Dehradun

Studying computer science foundations: data structures, algorithms, databases, operating systems, and distributed architecture.

  • Building production software across web, mobile, and AI workflows
  • Balancing university coursework with active product development

Got something worth building?

I'm always up for interesting conversations, hard engineering problems, or teams that move fast and care about the work. Worst case, we both learn something.
