What I'm looking for

I seek backend or AI-focused roles (remote or open to relocation) where I can lead technical execution, mentor engineers, and build scalable, cost-efficient systems using modern cloud and LLM technologies.

I am a senior software engineer with a Bachelor of Computer Science and deep expertise in Python and Django. I design and deliver scalable backend systems for SaaS and enterprise products, and I take pride in solving complex technical challenges.

I have led and built major products including an AI-powered book generation platform (FastRead) integrating multiple LLM providers and a cost-optimized model selection strategy that cut AI costs by 45% while reducing API failures significantly. I implemented end-to-end automation, Stripe subscription management, and multi-model image generation systems.

I have extensive enterprise experience working with clients such as Emaar, Greystar, GNC and others, and I have driven platform improvements—migrating monoliths to microservices, improving API response times from seconds to sub-300ms, and maintaining SFTP and data sync pipelines. I also authored a production Python package for GCP and AWS bucket integration published to PyPI.

I mentor junior engineers, enforce engineering standards with unit tests and pre-commit checks, and collaborate across teams to deliver reliable, production-grade software. I seek roles where I can continue building high-impact backend systems, lead technical execution, and work with modern AI and cloud technologies.
