What I'm looking for

I want to build production-grade backend and data/workflow platforms, especially in sustainability or other data-heavy domains. I’m looking for a hands-on team that values code quality, CI/CD, clear ownership, and strong collaboration across engineering and stakeholders.

I’m a Senior Software Engineer with 7+ years of experience building production web applications, backend APIs, REST APIs, data platforms, workflow automation systems, and internal tools.

My core strength is turning complex sustainability and data workflows into reliable platforms—delivering multi-tenant B2B SaaS capabilities like assessment workflows, questionnaire flows, document and evidence handling, and permissions management with role-based access control (RBAC). I own API design, technical documentation, and production support, and I’m comfortable with hands-on development, testing, deployment, and knowledge transfer.

I’ve built and maintained platform-grade components for sustainability assessment products using Django and FastAPI-style backend services, with React and TypeScript frontends, PostgreSQL, Docker, and cloud deployment patterns (including AWS). I focus on maintainability through modular services, typed API contracts, automated tests, and clear authorization rules.

Across projects, I’ve also delivered full-stack and workflow-heavy systems—such as an AI-powered job application platform (FastAPI, PostgreSQL, vector-based retrieval) and performance-focused logistics applications where I reduced API response times and manual operational effort. I consistently collaborate with remote, multicultural, client-facing teams and take pride in code review, quality gates, and TDD-driven execution.
