What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a backend role where I can design and optimize APIs, system architecture, and data models, then ship reliable services with strong testing and CI/CD—while collaborating closely across engineering and product.

I’m a Backend Engineer who turns product and business requirements into clean architecture—API contracts, system workflows, and maintainable service implementations. I specialize in building backend services that are modular, testable, and designed for performance from day one.

In my recent role at Exolve, I designed and optimized relational database schemas in PostgreSQL, improving query performance by 35% through indexing, normalization, and efficient data modeling. I also restructured backend logic using Python (Flask) and Node.js (Express), reducing code duplication by 25% and improving maintainability.

Earlier, at Cloudenotte, I worked as a Technical Writer, where I helped new users and developers onboard faster by creating documentation that reduced time-to-value by 35%. I collaborated with engineering and Customer Success teams to identify pain points from feedback, standardize technical writing frameworks, and cut recurring support issues by 50%.
