Shiv Hanjura builds
backend systems & AI/ML.
Computer Science undergrad at VIT Chennai with hands-on experience in enterprise data security, and a track record of shipping full-stack and AI-driven projects — from React frontends to Python ML systems.
Where I've worked
Enterprise security experience alongside academic coursework.
- Worked hands-on with Forcepoint DLP, data classification frameworks, and SCCM agent deployment across the organization.
- Investigated and documented a Forcepoint–WPS Office incompatibility, surfacing a genuine security finding that informed endpoint configuration.
- Generated synthetic PII test datasets across multiple file formats to validate DLP classification rules against Indian data-protection standards.
- Analysed SCCM agent deployment statistics to assess endpoint coverage and compliance.
- Applied the RBI IT Framework and DPDPA 2023 to align technical controls with regulatory requirements.
- Organized several hackathons over three years in this role.
- Solved recurring operational and organizational problems for the club.
- Developed leadership skills through sustained ownership of club operations.
What I've built
A mix of backend infrastructure, applied ML, and full-stack apps — built to learn by shipping.
Film Festival Submission Tracker
A backend-first project combining LLM-based structured extraction, semantic search via embeddings, and a ranking layer — built to learn REST APIs, auth, async processing, and AI integrations end to end.
Sentiment Analysis Bot
Benchmarked VADER (rule-based) against BERT transformers on 14K airline tweets — 89% sarcasm-detection accuracy vs. a 64% VADER baseline. Deployed as an interactive dashboard.
Facial Recognition Attendance System
Real-time attendance system using cosine-similarity matching with duplicate-safe tracking, processing a live webcam feed with optimized, low-latency identification.
IoT Secure Parcel Delivery & Smart Storage
Academic team project designing a secure parcel drop-and-storage system, built and presented for faculty project review.
Movie Recommendation Engine
Recommendation engine combining collaborative filtering and content-based algorithms, deployed as an interactive app with real-time user ratings.
Screenplay Writing App
A dependency-free, single-file browser screenplay editor with multi-project management, PDF export, and industry-standard page-break visualization.
