About me

I'm Uttam Bodara, a 2025 graduate in B.Sc. Information Technology (Cyber Security) from Parul University, Vadodara. I served as Class Representative for three years and completed hands-on projects in network scanning, vulnerability assessment, and security testing.

My background is in cybersecurity, but what I'm really drawn to is the question underneath it: what happens when a critical system fails not because someone attacked it, but just because software breaks? That's what pushed me toward High Integrity Systems and formal methods.

I currently work as a Web Developer at MageTornado, where maintaining production software has taught me more about real-world failure than any lab environment. I'm also a practitioner on TryHackMe and work across Python, Java, and JavaScript.

Resume

Education

  1. Dharmajivan Higher Secondary School, Surat

    2020 β€” 2021

    Completed Higher Secondary (12th) under the Gujarat Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Board with a strong academic result.

  2. Parul University, Vadodara

    2022 β€” 2025

    B.Sc. in Information Technology (Cyber Security). Studied data structures, computer networks, operating systems, cybersecurity and forensics, and machine learning. From the third semester onward I was running practical projects alongside coursework β€” a network scanner in Python, a vulnerability assessment on live web applications β€” which is where most of what I actually learned happened.

Experience

  1. MageTornado, Surat

    Web Developer

    Nov 2024 β€” Present

    Building and maintaining client-facing e-commerce sites on Shopify and WordPress. The work covers theme customization, plugin integration, performance optimization, and UI work in Figma and Adobe XD. It is not a safety-critical environment, but maintaining software that real clients depend on has changed how I think about failure. Things break in production that never broke in testing, and that gap is what got me interested in how safety-critical systems are engineered to handle it properly.

  2. Earth5R, Switzerland

    Web Design and Content Writing Volunteer

    2024 β€” Present

    Volunteer work designing web pages and writing content for sustainability initiatives. Projects have covered waste management, renewable energy, and conservation β€” mostly I handle the communication side, translating technical environmental work into something readable.

  3. Parul University, Vadodara

    Class Representative

    Aug 2022 β€” Aug 2025

    Represented a class of over 140 students for three years, acting as the main point of contact between students and faculty. Handled academic issues, personal disputes, scheduling, and event coordination. Three years of that teaches you more about communicating with people who disagree with you than any course does.

  4. Prodigy InfoTech, Mumbai

    Web Developer Intern

    May 2024 β€” June 2024

    Short internship focused on front-end and back-end fundamentals β€” HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and version control. Worked through structured challenges and built out small projects to practice writing clean, maintainable code.

  5. InternsElite, Vadodara

    Campus Ambassador

    Jun 2024 β€” Oct 2024

    Represented InternsElite at Parul University, sharing internship opportunities with students, handling registrations, and promoting events through social media and direct outreach.

  6. Chegg Private Limited, Delhi

    Subject Matter Expert

    April 2023 β€” Feb 2024

    Answered Computer Science questions for students globally, writing clear step-by-step solutions to complex problems. Explaining something properly to someone who is stuck is harder than it looks, and it sharpened how I think about communicating technical ideas.
