At LendAPI, we believe in building the future of fintech by investing in emerging talent with exceptional drive, creativity, and technical expertise. This summer, we are excited to welcome Hritika Phule to our Summer 2025 Engineering Internship Program, where she’ll be contributing to our core platforms, backend services, and cloud deployments.
Currently pursuing her Master of Science in Computer Science at California State University, Fullerton, Hritika brings a powerful combination of academic rigor and real-world experience to the team. Her strong foundation in advanced algorithms, backend development, and machine learning, paired with a global academic background from Savitribai Phule Pune University, makes her a valuable addition to our engineering force.
A Technologist with Depth and Breadth
Hritika’s journey is marked by her passion for building scalable systems and her commitment to quality. As a Software Engineer at RituVera, she handled 80K+ monthly requests across several business applications—designing and deploying REST APIs, implementing cloud-native microservices using Docker, Kubernetes, and AWS, and maintaining rock-solid code quality through rigorous unit testing and integration coverage.
She also previously interned at Deloitte, where she built robust ETL pipelines processing IIoT telemetry data and enhanced data integrity for KPI reporting. Her experience working on real-time streaming systems—using Apache Spark, Kafka, and Cassandra for fraud detection and recommendation systems—showcases her advanced data processing skills and her fluency in modern distributed systems architecture.
From Research Labs to Real Products
Hritika also contributed to neurology research at USC and CSUF, where she built RESTful APIs and data dashboards that supported real-time exploration of medical research cohorts. This combination of research and applied software engineering reflects LendAPI’s ethos: build systems that solve real problems, at scale.
A Word from the Team
"Hritika’s technical range—from building high-volume APIs to deploying scalable backend services in the cloud—is incredibly impressive. But what really stood out is her curiosity and eagerness to learn. I’m excited to see what she’ll accomplish at LendAPI this summer."
— Timothy Li, Co-Founder & CEO, LendAPI
From Hritika Herself
“Joining LendAPI this summer is a dream opportunity. I’m excited to learn from the team, contribute to high-impact projects, and deepen my understanding of fintech systems in a production environment. I can’t wait to get started!”
— Hritika Phule, Summer Engineering Intern
We’re thrilled to have Hritika on board and can’t wait to see the impact she’ll make during her time with us. Please join us in welcoming Hritika Phule to the LendAPI Summer Internship Program 2025!
