What I'm looking for

I seek backend or full-stack roles focused on building scalable APIs, improving reliability, and applying DevOps best practices in collaborative, growth-oriented teams.

I am a backend-focused software developer with strong expertise in Python and Flask, experienced in building and deploying RESTful APIs and improving service reliability through tools like Gunicorn and Nginx.

I have hands-on experience with database integrations (PostgreSQL, MySQL), containerization and orchestration concepts (Docker, Kubernetes), and middleware like Kafka, and I have produced performance testing, custom monitoring utilities, and code-quality reports to enhance maintainability.

I bring practical full-stack exposure from projects using Django, Next.js and Nuxt, hold certifications in Python, Java, SQL and KCNA, and I am motivated to deliver robust, scalable backend systems and seamless integrations.
