I'm a Senior Python Backend Engineer with over 10 years of experience building scalable backend platforms, microservices, and distributed cloud applications. I specialize in high-performance APIs using FastAPI and Django and in designing event-driven systems with Kafka and Redis.

I have a strong track record optimizing PostgreSQL, implementing Redis caching, and improving system performance for high-traffic applications. I design and deploy containerized services using Docker and Kubernetes across AWS and GCP environments.

I automate infrastructure provisioning and deployments with Terraform and CI/CD pipelines and implement monitoring with Prometheus and Grafana to ensure reliability and observability. I work effectively in Agile teams and mentor engineers on architecture and best practices.

Key achievements include reducing API latency by ~45%, improving scalability by ~30% through event-driven architecture, and cutting deployment effort by ~50% with CI/CD automation.
