I build reliable Django backend APIs with PostgreSQL, Celery, Redis, and automated tests.

I've built and scaled Django REST Framework backend services at Arelag for a car dealership management platform, improving heavy search response times by about 35% and reducing routing boilerplate by about 45%.

I designed atomic purchase workflows, asynchronous Celery and Redis jobs for inventory updates and promotional discounts, and automated tests for core business logic. Previously at Red Collar, I built geospatial data APIs with PostgreSQL/PostGIS, Wagtail, Docker, and Telegram notifications while covering 80% of critical functionality with tests.

My background also includes React and Django freelance web development, web scraping, SQL-based technical support, and a Computer Science degree as a mathematician-programmer.
