What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build reliable, high-performance backend systems and APIs, particularly for financial platforms, distributed applications, and cloud-based products.

I've built financial cashback, trading, and multi-tenant web platforms at Kapsus Technologies using Python, Django, PostgreSQL, Redis, and AWS.

On ForexCashbackRebate, I worked on a platform that delivered $40M+ in cashback to 35,000+ users and integrated with 30+ global forex brokers. I built cashback tracking and broker API integrations, supported real-time data synchronization, and worked on Skrill, PayPal, and bank-wire payments.

For Shopsty, I helped build multi-tenant architecture, improved query response times by 30% through indexing and Redis caching, and supported 99.9% uptime on AWS. I also set up Docker-based CI/CD, background processing with Celery and RabbitMQ, dashboards with Vue.js and Tailwind CSS, and monitoring with Prometheus and Grafana.

I've also worked on NSE/BSE trading algorithms, Zerodha API integrations, and ForexQna, where API optimization and Redis caching improved overall performance by 25% and API response times by 30%.
