What I'm looking for

I seek a backend or full-stack role in an agile team where I can build secure, performant APIs, grow technical skills, and collaborate cross-functionally.

I am a junior software developer focused on backend engineering with hands-on experience in Python, Django, and PostgreSQL. I completed specialized backend and full-stack programs that emphasize security, testing, and production-ready APIs.

My background includes building scalable backend systems, implementing RESTful APIs with JWT authentication, and applying security best practices like XSS, CSRF, and CSP mitigation. I use Git, Postman, and Django testing tools to deliver maintainable, well-documented code.

Prior to transitioning into tech, I worked in sales and marketing where I led digital campaigns, managed WordPress sites, and improved user experience through collaboration with web developers. That role strengthened my communication, customer service, and project coordination skills.

I seek opportunities where I can contribute to backend development, grow within an agile team, and continue applying best practices in security, testing, and performance while collaborating across product and design functions.
