Developer | Builder | Learner

Hello! I’m Sourabh Kapure, a developer passionate about exploring the intersection of Web2, Deep Learning, and Web3. I enjoy learning and applying new technologies to build scalable, efficient, and innovative solutions. My current focus is on full-stack development, data science, and decentralized applications.

ETHIndia 2024 Winner

1st Best zk Dapp on Polygon zkEVM Track
Our project, zKonnect, won the 1st Place for Best zk Dapp award on the Polygon zkEVM Track at ETHIndia 2024.

We built zKonnect, a privacy-preserving ticketing platform powered by zkSNARKs to address unauthorized ticket resales. The system binds tickets to the buyer's identity, preventing resale while safeguarding personal data. Designed for high-demand events, it ensures secure and transparent ticketing with robust enforcement against black market activity.

Core Skill Set

• Frontend Development: Building responsive and interactive web applications using React, along with proficiency in JavaScript, CSS, and HTML.
• Deep Learning & Data Science: Experienced in using PyTorch for developing Neural Networks (NNs), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), and Computer Vision (CV) applications.
• Security & Scaling: Focused on smart contract security and Layer 2 scaling solutions to create reliable and efficient systems.
• Full-Stack dApp Development: Developing responsive and high-performance Web3 applications.

Current Learning Journey

Currently exploring:

• Next.js for modern React-based web development.
• Django & Django REST Framework (DRF) for backend APIs.
• PostgreSQL & MySQL for relational database management.
• Docker SDK for Python for managing Docker containers with Python.
• NLP for creating intelligent text-based tools and applications.
• Zero-Knowledge Proofs for building privacy-focused solutions.

Experience with UniDAO

I had the opportunity to deepen my understanding of Web3 through UniDAO 2.0 at NITK Surathkal. This program selected five colleges across India and was a selective initiative by Devfolio and ETHIndia. Being among 39 builders chosen from 270 applicants, I gained practical knowledge of decentralized technologies, including foundational principles, DeFi, NFTs, and Layer 2 scaling, through an intensive six-week bootcamp.
