Raj Bandi — Senior Full Stack & Mobile Developer

# about

I'm a Senior Full Stack and Mobile Developer based in Melbourne, Australia, with over two decades of experience building software across diverse domains.

My work spans enterprise .NET systems, cross-platform mobile apps, blockchain implementations, and health IT / bioinformatics solutions. I've delivered critical systems for Australian government departments, financial services, and major enterprises.

I hold a Master's in Health IT from the University of Melbourne and a Post Graduate Diploma in Bioinformatics from JSS University. Also holds a Graduate Diploma in Public Health from Victoria University.

I founded ORIC Labs (Open Research & Inference Center), where I research gaps in the market and build free, open-source, privacy-first tools for research, productivity, and biological computing — including BioLang, a domain-specific language for bioinformatics, and a suite of browser extensions and PWAs. Everything runs client-side, zero telemetry, zero cost.
