10 unique projects which can hire you in big tech
If you're pursuing engineering and looking for projects you can include on your resume, deliver in college (as minor or major projects), and have substantial weightage when listed, welcome, dear friends. This blog will cover 10 unique projects—the first part of a 20-project series. These aren't your typical, everyday projects. They are impactful and can even transform into startup ideas. Let's begin! Here's a brief overview of the first 10 projects:
1. Learning Management System (LMS)
An LMS platform allows users to create and sell courses. Think of it as a personal version of platforms like Udemy. Users can register, upload, and sell courses through a custom account. You can use tech stacks like MERN or MEAN, integrating tools like Angular or Socket.io to add interactivity. It’s a large-scale project and will teach you about course management systems, CRUD operations, and user account management.
2. Dynamic Portfolio or Resume Generator
Using HTML5 Canvas, create a drag-and-drop tool for resume or portfolio generation. Similar to Canva, it allows users to build customized resumes. You'll learn about image processing, drag-and-drop UI, and canvas programming. This project adds a unique edge to your portfolio and showcases your expertise beyond basic CRUD operations.
3. Collaborative Code Editor
Build an online code editor supporting real-time collaboration, syntax highlighting, and multi-language compilation. This project will expose you to libraries like Socket.io for real-time collaboration and Monaco Editor for syntax highlighting. It’s ideal for mimicking interview environments and will push you to learn beyond basic programming concepts.
4. Task Manager with Analytics
Develop a task management tool integrated with D3.js for data visualization. Assign tasks, track progress, and generate performance analytics (e.g., suggesting optimal work times). Integrating AI/ML can provide additional insights. This project demonstrates your ability to handle data and create meaningful visualizations.
5. Video Annotator Tool
Create a platform where users can annotate videos at specific timestamps. Features like drawings, notes, and highlights can be activated at certain points in the video. This project will teach you about video processing, annotations, and handling multimedia data.
6. AI-Powered Job Recommendation Platform
Build a system that recommends jobs based on uploaded resumes. Use AI to match skills and experiences with job descriptions stored in JSON format. This project highlights your expertise in working with AI-driven recommendation systems.
7. Unified Messaging App
Create a clone of Texts.com, where messages from various platforms like WhatsApp, Instagram, and Slack are consolidated into one interface. This project teaches API integration, data aggregation, and UI/UX design.
8. Multiplayer Shooting Game
Using WebSockets, develop a multiplayer game where players can shoot, move, and interact in real time. This project introduces you to game engines, mathematics for game physics, and real-time communication.
9. Home Automation System
Create a web app to control home appliances like lights, fans, and AC using an Arduino microcontroller connected to the internet. This project integrates IoT, embedded systems, and backend programming.
10. Math-Based Visualization Tool
Develop a tool using D3.js for interactive data visualization. Incorporate mathematical computations for advanced charts and graphs. For example, you can use this to visualize task performance analytics or predict efficiency trends using ML.
Each project pushes your learning to the next level and equips you with skills relevant to industry demands. By adding these projects to your portfolio, you'll stand out to potential recruiters. Stay consistent, and you'll surpass the competition!
