What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a backend role where I can build and optimize Python/Django/FastAPI REST services, improve performance with caching and databases, and deploy reliably on AWS/Docker—working on data-driven, real-time systems. Open to remote or relocation.

I’m a Python Backend Developer with 3+ years of experience building scalable backend applications and REST APIs using Django, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Redis, and AWS. I focus on clean API development, authentication/authorization, database optimization, and reliable cloud deployments.

In my most recent role, I improved API performance by 60% through Redis caching and PostgreSQL tuning, and I designed storage and backend services for high-volume asset monitoring using InfluxDB. I’ve also built secure backend services from scratch (including role-based access control) and developed real-time notification workflows using Django and Celery, deploying and maintaining services with Docker and AWS.
