What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a remote role where I can build and deploy real backend systems, contribute to API design and performance, and keep growing through English-speaking technical and client-facing collaboration.

I build and ship production systems end-to-end with Python, Django, Django REST Framework, and React. My freelance QR-based church attendance system has been used by a real organization since January 2026, replacing a paper-based process with role-based access, Google OAuth, QR check-ins, and attendance statistics.

I’ve resolved N+1 query issues in paginated Django endpoints and deployed full-stack applications using Render, Vercel, Neon PostgreSQL, and Swagger documentation. I’m self-taught, communicate comfortably in English with technical and client-facing teams, and am open to remote roles.
