What I'm looking for

I’m looking for backend roles where I can build reliable Node.js/API systems at scale, own deployments, and collaborate in fast async teams. I’m open to remote, hybrid, or onsite roles globally (with visa sponsorship if needed).

Backend & DevOps Engineer with 2+ years building backend systems for platforms with real user load — from a national platform with 1M+ users to a school ERP serving 12,000+ students to a live US production system with 99.99% uptime.

Backend: Node.js, Express, NestJS, Laravel/PHP, Django/Flask — REST APIs, WebSockets, JWT/OAuth across multiple frameworks and tech stacks.

DevOps: Built AutoCloud, a self-healing Kubernetes (k3s) platform on a self-managed VPS — Terraform provisioning, full CI/CD (build, security scan, deploy in ~2 minutes), Prometheus/Grafana/Loki monitoring, and automated alerting.

Databases & cloud: MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, SQL Server, across AWS, GCP, Azure, and OCI, with hands-on Linux server administration maintaining 99%+ uptime in production.

Experience working remotely with US-based teams under async workflows and production standards.

Open to remote, global, and onsite backend or DevOps roles. Can start immediately.
