At Branch International, I build Python payment integrations and a FastAPI routing service that switches between payment gateways when failures occur. I also re-engineered the payments framework with Celery background jobs and transaction event tracking.
At Search Atlas, I re-architected Celery task queues for a Django microservice handling 1.9M+ daily requests. The work eliminated recurring 65K-task backlogs and cut user-facing p90 latency by 96%, from 225 seconds to under 10.
I’ve also hardened an LLM-powered recommendation service against prompt injection across a multi-provider failover chain, and improved production observability with OpenTelemetry tracing. Earlier, I delivered payment-enabled web platforms for Upwork clients, from REST APIs through deployment.
