What I'm looking for

I'm open to English-speaking teams where I can build reliable, scalable Python services, improve distributed systems, and collaborate across backend, QA, and product.

At Grid Dynamics, I build backend services for a digital health platform serving 20k+ monthly active users, improving clinical workflow reliability and reducing operational costs by about 60%. I also led a critical Rust-to-Python migration, automated insurance-verification edge cases, and reduced CI time by roughly 25% with Ruff.

Previously at Nebo, I delivered accounting-platform features, led a Python 2.7 to Python 3 migration, built an e-signature service, and maintained REST APIs, logging, and monitoring pipelines. I work across Python, FastAPI, Django, PostgreSQL, AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, and distributed systems.
