What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a remote-friendly team where I can build secure, high-performance Python backends—Django/FastAPI, GraphQL/REST, WebSockets—and ship on GCP/Azure with strong CI/CD and thoughtful product collaboration.

I’m a Senior Python Backend Developer with 6+ years of experience building scalable, production-grade APIs and server-side systems. I specialize in Django, Flask, and FastAPI, and I’ve delivered real-world platforms in fintech, government, and energy—architecting role-based access systems, real-time WebSocket pipelines, GraphQL APIs, and CI/CD-deployed cloud infrastructure on Azure and GCP.

In recent work, I’ve built Flask-based REST APIs and deployed the backend end-to-end on GCP, including Cloud Run, Cloud SQL, and Secret Manager, with JWT auth and role-based access. Earlier, I led NGOffice360 backend development—designing secure RBAC for NDPR compliance, implementing WebSockets to cut notification latency to under 2 seconds, and improving GraphQL performance (reducing frontend data-fetching round trips by ~35%) while accelerating deployments on Azure by ~60%.
