What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, collaboration, and growth opportunities.

I am a Full-Stack Python Developer with over six years of experience in developing and maintaining web applications, back-end services, and databases. My expertise lies in leveraging Python with frameworks like Django and Flask, along with front-end technologies such as React and Angular. I have a proven track record of improving user engagement and system performance while reducing operational costs.

Throughout my career, I have successfully migrated legacy systems to modern tech stacks, developed microservices architectures, and integrated third-party APIs to enhance application functionality. My commitment to continuous improvement is reflected in my ability to optimize back-end infrastructure, resulting in significant performance enhancements and cost reductions. I thrive in collaborative environments, working seamlessly with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality software solutions.
