What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and offers opportunities for growth in backend development and data science.

I am a dedicated backend developer with a strong foundation in Python and Django, currently enhancing my skills at FAST-National University of Computer and Emerging Sciences. My professional journey began with a focus on automating build and deployment processes, which significantly improved development workflows and reduced manual errors. I have successfully deployed Django applications on AWS EC2, ensuring production-grade performance with tools like Gunicorn and Nginx.

During my recent internship at Qwerty Experts, I developed an NLP-based chatbot and integrated payment solutions using Stripe API. My projects reflect my ability to create modular backends and ensure API reliability through thorough documentation and testing. I am passionate about leveraging technology to solve real-world problems, and I continuously seek opportunities to grow and contribute to innovative projects.
