What I'm looking for
I am a backend-focused software engineer with a passion for building scalable, reliable systems using Python and Django. My experience includes contributing to fullstack and health-focused web applications, designing backend APIs, and deploying systems that efficiently scale under real-world loads. I specialize in crafting RESTful APIs, optimizing PostgreSQL queries, and deploying Docker containers through CI/CD pipelines.
Throughout my career, I have been particularly keen on projects that have a meaningful impact, such as healthcare platforms or applications that simplify people's lives. My journey includes internships where I developed backend services for web and mobile applications, optimized database queries, and collaborated with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality features. I thrive in environments that challenge my skills and allow me to learn quickly, ensuring I can adapt to new technologies and methodologies.
