What I'm looking for

I'm looking to grow in backend development and AI engineering, building business and e-commerce applications with Python, Django, Go, APIs, data modeling and machine learning.

At SkilledHQ, I build Django e-commerce APIs for product data, authentication and orders, and develop Go/PostgreSQL modules for payroll, invoices and payments.

I work across data models, migrations, validation, API integrations, testing and debugging. I've also contributed backend logic for salon appointment booking, dashboard endpoints, and logging with Grafana Loki and Promtail.

I'm learning AI engineering through projects including ReferralGuard, an AI-assisted documentation prototype with human review gates, and machine-learning prediction work built with Django and Jupyter.
