What I'm looking for

I’m seeking to leverage my technical skills and collaborative approach to contribute to innovative projects and drive team success.

At Carmel Solution, I lead a team building and scaling a data analytics SaaS platform. I’m migrating its Django monolith to FastAPI microservices, reducing average API response time by 55%, and introduced Celery-based processing that cut report generation from 10 minutes to under one.

At Kinatrax, I re-architected transaction reconciliation for a fintech reporting platform, reducing processing errors by 80%, and optimized report generation from 12 seconds to under 3. Earlier, at JorieAI, I developed Django and Flask applications and delivered an inventory and billing module that reduced manual reconciliation effort by 55%.
