KRISHIV GUPTA

Built and operated a distributed backend for an AI-powered SaaS that evaluates short-form video performance. Implemented FastAPI + PostgreSQL + Redis on Docker (Railway) with automated DB migrations on deploys, and designed a multi-queue Celery task system for high-volume asynchronous video processing with custom retry/backoff policies. Tuned production server settings (Uvicorn workers, timeouts, keep-alive) to support large media uploads and long-lived connections. Developed a multimodal AI pipeline analyzing video, audio, and visual signals to generate automated performance diagnostics for short-form content.

Built and directed the end-to-end development of five client websites for community organizations and events, including a public event site with integrated fundraising donations, using Lovable AI and Cursor with React, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and shadcn/ui. Designed a Supabase-backed backend (PostgreSQL) with serverless Edge Functions for form submissions, database writes, and token-based email verification. Implemented end-to-end Stripe payments including live checkout sessions, payment verification, and webhook handling to support real-time donation transactions, while gaining exposure to client communication and international business operations.

Researched content trends and curriculum gaps to shape the platform’s educational video strategy. Analyzed engagement data across short-form formats to guide content direction and improve audience fit. Coordinated with social media influencers to validate content-market fit and support distribution efforts.
