Harshitha Prabhuswamy

• Automated maritime port data collection, analysis, and visualization using Python (web scraping, Matplotlib, Excel), structuring large datasets to support optimization and simulation workflows. • Designed SQL schemas for global container terminal datasets and integrated them into a Spring Boot web application with Hibernate and PostgreSQL, and ensured secure data handling by externalizing sensitive credentials. • Designed and implemented a custom Matplotlib stylesheet for data visualizations.

• Contributed to full-stack development of a web application, implementing front-end and back-end functionalities to ensure seamless integration & operational efficiency. • Engineered microservices using Spring Boot and optimized data operations with Hibernate. • Utilized Maven; Apache Tomcat. • Improved workflows by analyzing requirements and recommending process modifications. • Conducted Common Vulnerability Checks (CVC) and Static Application Security Testing (SAST) to address security vulnerabilities.

• Managed IT activities including application support, user query resolution, account management, and upgrades, driving continuous improvement. • Participated in knowledge transfer sessions across multiple applications and documented system features, workflows, and technical details to enable future automation.

• Performed simulation tasks to evaluate system reliability under repeated ON/OFF switching cycles. • Conducted endurance testing of switches using stepper motor–based simulators to assess durability across multiple cycles. • Implemented encryption and decryption (MD5 method) for data security, exploring methods for authentication, integrity, and confidentiality. • Utilized LabVIEW to simulate and test temperature readings in the Star 90 module, verifying accuracy against tolerance ranges.

• Programmed a NodeMCU microcontroller in Embedded C and integrated it with a custom mobile app to develop a voice-controlled smart robot. • Implemented hardware-software interfacing, including sensor data collection, cloud communication, and control logic. • Applied practical skills in embedded programming, IoT integration, and system-level design in a team-oriented project.
