Senior backend engineer building distributed, event-driven systems in Python and Django.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Backend Engineer with 4+ years building and maintaining distributed, event-driven backend systems in Python and Django. I’ve independently designed and shipped an end-to-end data-ingestion pipeline—from SFTP authentication and extraction to production sync.
I re-engineer production pipelines that process 400K+ records daily, improving throughput by 30–40% through targeted write-avoidance and workflow redesign. I also design SLA-tiered data-fetch workflows, delivering incremental/latest-data pulls for high-priority clients while standard clients receive full-dataset fetches to reduce unnecessary load and infrastructure cost.
My day-to-day work blends asynchronous task orchestration (Celery/RabbitMQ) with reliable pipeline/workflow architecture backed by PostgreSQL. I’ve built and hardened large-scale web scraping infrastructure using Selenium, CAPTCHA-solving integration, and anti-bot countermeasure handling—while continuously improving performance, debugging production issues, and mentoring junior engineers.
Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
Designed and built an end-to-end bulk data-ingestion pipeline with SFTP authentication and production syncing, owning architecture, implementation, and rollout. Re-engineered a pipeline processing 400K+ records daily, improving throughput 30–40%, and mentored two junior engineers while maintaining a Celery/RabbitMQ/PostgreSQL distributed pipeline.
Built web-scraping pipelines to onboard new data sources, integrating CAPTCHA-solving vendors and using Selenium to handle site anti-bot measures. Improved scraper resilience as target sites changed their countermeasures and shipped fixes to minimize downtime, plus performance optimizations to existing backend data pipelines.
Resolved bugs in production backend pipelines while ramping up on Python, Django, Celery, RabbitMQ, and PostgreSQL. Supported containerization and deployment workflows using Docker.
