Backend & AI software engineer building scalable Python systems and event-driven APIs.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Software Engineer focused on system, backend, and AI engineering, with a strong track record of designing scalable services and APIs. I lead architecture and development that reduces manual work and improves reliability for real product workflows.
At Docsumo (Remote), I built a fully automated billing and credit deduction system using Stripe, plus an in-house AI powered data extraction system for bank statements and its use cases. I also shaped backend architecture decisions and implemented REST APIs using Python frameworks.
To ensure systems stay fast and stable, I optimize performance through caching, database query improvements, and memory profiling to prevent OOM errors and container crashes. I enhanced search capabilities with MongoDB Atlas Search and engineered complex event-driven workflows using Temporal.
Earlier, as a Python/Automation Developer (Upwork), I delivered automation solutions like web crawlers and scrapers, built bots for Discord/Twitter/Telegram, and deployed them on AWS EC2. I’m motivated by shipping practical automation and backend features that scale, are maintainable, and deliver measurable impact.
