What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build and own backend systems—secure APIs, microservices, and cloud integrations—where I can improve performance with async processing, strengthen reliability via CI/CD, and use observability to ship confidently.

I’m a backend-focused software engineer who designs and delivers production-grade, microservices-based systems. In my current role, I architected and developed backend services with Python, Flask, and FastAPI, reducing API response time by 35% using asynchronous processing and PostgreSQL/MySQL query optimization, while building 50+ RESTful APIs with JWT authentication, RBAC, validation, and structured error handling for high-availability environments.

I also bring end-to-end delivery skills—from Dockerized services and CI/CD with GitHub Actions to cloud observability with AWS CloudWatch and integrations like Azure AD and Microsoft SharePoint. Across my experience, I’ve built and maintained Django/Flask/FastAPI APIs, accelerated transaction flows by 30% through query optimization, and automated data ingestion using BeautifulSoup and Selenium—always pairing clean architecture with testing and practical performance improvements.
