Hessam Parchehbafieh
@hessamparchehbafieh
Senior Python back-end developer focused on high-throughput distributed systems, async processing, and scalable microservices.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Python Back-End Developer with 6+ years engineering high-throughput distributed systems. I’ve consistently improved performance and reliability—cutting latency by up to 20%, reducing integration errors by 40%, and saving 35+ hours weekly through cleaner backend architecture.
I own backend architecture end-to-end, specializing in FastAPI and Django REST Framework. I lead asynchronous task processing with Celery and Redis, build event-driven communication with Apache Kafka, and design RESTful APIs with strong security foundations using Keycloak (OAuth 2.0) and OWASP-aligned practices.
In my recent roles, I’ve accelerated authentication setup by 30% using Keycloak-based OAuth 2.0, reduced service response time by 25% with FastAPI in microservices (alongside Golang), and eliminated synchronous bottlenecks for heavy workloads. I also improve operational outcomes with automation engineering—building low-code pipelines in n8n and integrating APIs like the Pipedrive API and OpenAI Whisper to deliver near-zero reporting lag.
