Selected Case Studies

Production-grade systems built and operated for IIT Patna and EdTech institutions at scale. View all 5 case studies โ†’

Grade Lookup & Reporting Tool

Faculty at IIT Patna were spending hours per week manually pulling grades across multiple courses with no central view. I built a PHP-based grade lookup system with role-based access, enabling faculty and admins to view multi-course grades from a single interface.

Tech: PHP, MySQL, Moodle APIs, role-based access control

Eliminated manual reporting dependency

Transcript Viewer (Custom Moodle Block)

Academic teams needed fast, filtered access to student transcripts across cohorts and batches โ€” a feature not available in standard Moodle. I designed and deployed a custom Moodle block with cohort and batch filters, accessible to authorised roles only.

Tech: Moodle block API, PHP, cohort management

Streamlined academic & admin workflows

Infrastructure Automation & Reliability

Inherited a manual backup process prone to failures and storage bloat. Re-architected the entire backup and restore pipeline using shell scripts and cron jobs on Ubuntu LAMP servers, with DB tuning and uptime monitoring.

Tech: Ubuntu, Apache, MariaDB, Shell scripting, Cron

30% reduction in backup & restore time

BigBlueButton Live Session Integration

Integrated BigBlueButton for live class delivery across UG, PG and PhD programmes at IIT Patna โ€” including server-side configuration, Moodle plugin setup, session scheduling, and faculty training for 200+ educators.

Tech: BigBlueButton, Moodle BBB plugin, server config

Live sessions for 5,000+ learners

OAuth2 / SSO Integration

Configured OAuth2-based Single Sign-On with Google and Microsoft for seamless faculty and student authentication โ€” reducing login friction and support tickets across the institution.

Tech: OAuth2, Moodle auth plugins, Google Workspace

Reduced login-related support load

Large-Scale User Onboarding

Designed and executed the onboarding process for 5,000+ students and 200+ faculty across multiple programmes โ€” using Moodle CLI tools for bulk uploads, cohort assignment, and role configuration at scale.

Tech: Moodle CLI, CSV uploads, cohort management
