What I'm looking for

I seek a Senior Backend role where I can own backend architecture, work on scalable web/AI systems, mentor teams, and drive performance and security improvements.

I am an experienced backend developer with four years of hands-on expertise in Python, Django, Django Rest Framework and FastAPI. I focus on building scalable, reliable APIs and back-end systems that align with stakeholder goals and product strategy.

I have delivered production-ready MVPs and enterprise features, including autonomous AI agent integrations and email marketing platforms, often as the sole backend engineer on critical projects. I take ownership from design through deployment, improving performance and security along the way.

I collaborate closely with frontend, ML and DevOps teams, lead demos and client-facing meetings, and promote best practices for code quality, performance and security. I have experience deploying and maintaining services on AWS and optimizing systems to reduce API response times and increase throughput.

I mentor and lead small teams, train junior developers, and continuously learn new technologies to progress toward a Senior Software Engineer role focused on web development, AI and machine learning projects.
