## Hi everyone!

I’m Saranya, a **BTech student**. I have experience with Python, SQL, and machine learning. I also have backend engineering intern experience with **Java/Spring Boot, REST APIs, Docker, and CI/CD** from my time at Quadrant Technologies and Cognizant.

I’m interested in contributing to **ListenBrainz** for GSoC 2027, particularly around data pipelines, recommendations, or API/backend work, since that lines up closely with my background. I’m currently contributing to Open Food Facts (Robotoff) as well, with a couple of approved PRs there.

Could someone point me to the current ideas page and any good first issues to get started with? Looking forward to getting involved with the community!
