What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can own backend services end-to-end, build secure APIs, and also apply ML to real products. I want an environment that values data-driven iteration, clean engineering practices, and measurable impact.

I’m a backend developer who builds secure, reliable RESTful systems—using Flask, SQLAlchemy, Alembic, and JWT authentication to ship core workflows like authentication, profiles, listings, bookings, and payments with automated testing in place.

I also pair engineering with applied AI, creating end-to-end ML pipelines for risk-focused decisioning and developing full-stack AI experiences (authentication, realtime collaboration, and product-ready workflows). From research work applying SEM/EDX/Raman analysis to predictive modeling, to translating findings into real-world applications, I’m driven by data-driven iteration and measurable outcomes.
