Alexandr Sech
@alexandrsech
Senior Python engineer building high-throughput FastAPI/AsyncIO backend systems.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Python Developer with 6+ years of Python and 10+ years in IT, focused on building reliable backend systems. I enjoy designing services where performance, correctness, and maintainability matter from day one.
At my current role (Forex Broker CRM, Trading platform), I worked with FastAPI + AsyncIO to increase throughput by 30%. I build data-driven features using SQLAlchemy 2.0 and Alembic for migrations, and I keep request handling robust with Pydantic validation and Dependency Injection (FastAPI Depends).
I’m strong on quality and automation: I wrote 200+ Pytest tests (fixtures, parametrize, mocking) and used Redis for caching plus Celery for background tasks. I also delivered real-time functionality with WebSocket for notifications.
For infrastructure and delivery, I work with Docker and Kubernetes (AWS EKS) and Rancher, and I’m comfortable with CI/CD tooling (GitLab Runner, GitHub Runner, Drone). I’ve also supported system modernization via refactoring legacy code and migration pipelines through Alembic on PostgreSQL.
