I build scalable Python backends, APIs, and cloud deployments for high-volume applications.

United Kingdom

At ZAPTA Technologies, I led scalable Python services with FastAPI, Django, Flask, REST APIs, and microservices, improving platform scalability by 40%. I built distributed backend services handling more than 1M monthly API requests and optimized data retrieval by 50%.

Previously at Devix and Axe, I improved backend throughput, API response times, database performance, asynchronous workflows, and automated testing. I've worked across PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis, Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, GitHub Actions, and Jenkins to make releases faster and more reliable.

I also build full-stack MERN products, including wellness, insurance, and GRC platforms, and enjoy mentoring engineers through code reviews, debugging, and architecture guidance.
