What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build production-grade backend systems and AI-powered features in a cloud-native, reliability-first environment—owning architecture, integrations, and clean code that scales.

I’m a Senior Backend Engineer with 5+ years of experience building scalable, cloud-native SaaS platforms and AI-powered systems. I specialize in Python, AWS serverless architectures, microservices, and event-driven systems, with a strong focus on reliability, scalability, and clean, maintainable code.

At Powerdata GmbH, I designed and delivered AI-powered customer support automation (IVR & chatbot workflows) and owned cloud-native SaaS architecture on AWS to achieve high scalability and fault tolerance. I also built and maintained Python SDKs and microservices, developed a FastAPI-based AI agent platform with production-grade state management, and owned CI/CD pipelines while partnering with DevOps teams.
