What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, encourages collaboration, and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a seasoned Backend Developer with a strong focus on building scalable web applications and APIs. My expertise lies in Django and the Django REST Framework, where I have successfully developed and maintained high-performance systems. I have a proven track record in CRM, ERP, and Warehouse Management Systems, and I am adept at solving complex problems with efficient, maintainable code.

Throughout my career, I have been recognized for my ability to optimize infrastructure and enhance system observability through CI/CD pipelines. My recent role as a Senior Backend Engineer at Redcliffe Labs involved upgrading legacy systems and leading architectural planning for chatbot integration. I take pride in mentoring junior developers and ensuring high-quality contributions through established code review guidelines.

My commitment to continuous improvement is evident in my initiatives to optimize Redis and Celery configurations, significantly reducing background task lag. I am passionate about leveraging technology to create impactful solutions and am always eager to tackle new challenges in the backend development space.
