What I'm looking for

I'm looking for remote opportunities where I can build reliable Python backend, automation, AI, or computer-vision products, contribute to production systems, solve complex workflow problems, and continue growing with a collaborative engineering team.

I build production Python and Django systems for U.S.-based remote clients, including API-driven workflows, automation tools, data-processing utilities, and internal web platforms.

My work on the VeroTerra company platform includes dashboards, NPS campaigns and analytics, email scheduling, REST-style export endpoints, terminal-health monitoring, and staff administration. I also build maintainable operational workflows with failure handling, retries, background execution, structured data, and third-party integrations.

Beyond backend development, I created an automated podcast clip generator using Django, FFmpeg, and Whisper, handling transcription, subtitle rendering, audio synchronization, and short-form video generation.

I enjoy turning complex computer-vision and browser-processing challenges into end-to-end tools, from a basketball shooting coach using YOLO, ByteTrack, OpenCV, and MediaPipe to gesture recognition and Selenium/Playwright automation workflows.
