What I'm looking for

I’m looking for fully remote roles where I can lead backend architecture, migrations, and reliability—while integrating AI/LLM tooling into development workflows and strengthening DevOps practices for scalable production systems.

I’m a Backend Tech Lead / Senior Backend Engineer with 10+ years building and scaling production web systems. I bring deep expertise in Python, Django, and FastAPI, plus strong DevOps skills across Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD—focused on architecture, reliability, and maintainable delivery.

I’ve led multi-tenant backend design for SaaS, migrated to Strawberry GraphQL, and implemented Guardian object-level permissions for admin access control. I also delivered integrations via Kafka and RabbitMQ, improved test coverage and documentation, and brought systems into full PCI DSS compliance; now I’m actively integrating AI tooling and LLMs (Claude, GPT-4) into daily development workflows as I transition toward AI engineering.
