What I'm looking for

I seek backend roles owning API design and scaling data-heavy systems, with emphasis on performance, async architectures, and collaborative DevOps culture.

I am a backend software engineer with 4+ years building high-load Python APIs and async architectures, experienced in Django, DRF, and event-driven systems.

I have led migrations to asynchronous architectures, optimized PostgreSQL and ClickHouse queries for 3x faster analytics, and built ETL pipelines with Apache Airflow while integrating Kafka for real-time processing.

I enjoy owning API design and scaling systems from early startup stages to production, delivering measurable performance improvements and cost reductions while maintaining strong testing and DevOps practices.
