What I'm looking for

I seek a senior backend or automation role where I can lead teams, build scalable Python-based systems, improve CI/CD and cloud deployments, and work in an Agile environment that values testing, mentorship, and measurable impact.

I am a senior software engineer and team leader with seven years of experience specializing in Python, FastAPI and Flask, and building scalable backend systems. I have a strong background in Docker-based CI/CD pipelines, cloud platforms (AWS, GCP), and delivering production-ready automation solutions that improved system scalability and performance.

I have led teams of developers, designed ETL and network-automation solutions, and implemented testing-driven workflows (TDD) and performance optimizations across projects for transportation and large-scale data clients. I thrive in Agile environments, support colleagues technically, and prioritize reliable, maintainable systems.
