Prashant Garbuja

Java Developer

Hi there! I’m a software developer based in Sydney, Australia, with a lifelong passion for technology. It all started with my love for computer games as a kid, which sparked my curiosity about how things work. I spent countless hours tweaking PC settings and finding clever ways to run new games, and that’s where my journey into tech truly began. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, traveling (as long as it fits my budget!), and stepping out of my comfort zone—something I’ve embraced more as an adult compared to my introverted childhood. In the world of tech, coding feels like my creative outlet. I started with C and C++, then expanded my toolkit to include C#, Java, and Python. Java, with all its verbosity, still holds a special place as it keeps my foundational skills sharp. I also love experimenting and learning on my own. I’ve set up a home lab where I tinker with different technologies, from networking setups to AI customization. Recently, I’ve been exploring Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to fine-tune AI models for more contextualized searches while ensuring complete data privacy—no breaches, just smarter solutions! It’s a mix of problem-solving and creativity that keeps me excited every day. I earned my Bachelor's in Computer Science Engineering in Bangalore, fulfilling my dream of combining exploration and technology. After moving to Sydney, I completed a Master’s in Information Technology and dove deeper into the tech community by attending seminars and Java meetups. Connecting with like-minded people has been such a rewarding experience! I value kindness and respect in all interactions and would love to chat if you’d like to know more about me. 😊
