@leondsjofe
Backend Python developer delivering scalable microservices and optimized async systems.
What I'm looking for
I am a Backend Python developer with four years' experience building scalable, high-performance applications for fintech and e-commerce, leading small teams and delivering measurable cost and latency improvements. I design modular backends with Django/DRF, implement async processing with Celery/RabbitMQ/Redis, and deploy containerized microservices to reduce deployment errors and improve throughput.
I combine backend expertise with frontend familiarity (React.js) to deliver end-to-end solutions, optimize databases (PostgreSQL) and automate workflows, achieving results such as 20% cost reduction, 15–50% faster queries, and 25% improved system throughput. I am proactive, detail-oriented, and focused on continuous learning and practical problem solving.
