Python backend developer and ML engineer building scalable AI-driven web and cloud-native systems.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven Python backend developer and machine learning engineer with over five years of experience building scalable web applications, SaaS platforms, and AI-driven products. I architect and deliver production-grade systems using FastAPI, Django, AWS, Docker, and distributed architectures.
As a founder and product engineer, I built full-stack e-commerce and SaaS platforms, real-time chat and audio features with WebRTC, and an EdTech product with role-based dashboards. I design agentic AI solutions for smart customer support, applying NLP, LangChain and LangGraph to automate workflows and improve user experience.
I have led small teams, owned end-to-end projects, and implemented DevOps pipelines and cloud-native deployments. I focus on performance optimization, robust APIs, and practical ML/NLP solutions that drive measurable business outcomes.
