I build scalable backend platforms, APIs, and automation for high-volume production systems.
What I'm looking for
I've built and operated high-volume backend platforms at Leadtech Group, including systems processing over 2 million daily requests at 99.99% uptime. I improve reliability through automated testing, Docker-based environments, CI/CD workflows, incident response, and observability.
Across LLeego, LIFULL Connect, Mediagenix, Macnific, Cash Converters, and MultiSafepay, I've delivered API integrations, payment gateways, search systems, caching strategies, and multi-tenant e-commerce platforms. My work has reduced API response times by 45%, improved load times by 60%, increased test coverage from 5% to 95%, and supported platforms handling more than 1 million daily requests.
