What I'm looking for

I seek a backend role building scalable APIs and data pipelines with Python, Airflow, and CI/CD in collaborative, impact-driven teams that value automation and product ownership.

I'm also invite the opportunity of exploring other technologies and value teams who incentivize innovation.

I am a backend developer on the Moonshots team at Deliverect, focused on building innovative products for the food delivery industry and driving new revenue streams for global brands.

I design and maintain Python APIs using Flask and FastAPI, and I build solutions like Pulse, Resolve, Deliverect Cloud Print, and Marketplace Optimization that serve thousands of restaurants and address fraud, reporting, and operational automation.

I engineer reliable delivery pipelines and infrastructure: CI/CD with GitHub Actions, ETL with Apache Airflow and DBT, testing with pytest, and databases including MongoDB, PostgreSQL, and Google BigQuery. I also integrate with major delivery platforms such as Uber Eats, DoorDash, Deliveroo, and Just Eat.

Previously I developed internal web applications with Django at Visteon to eliminate paper processes on the assembly line and worked as a .NET intern building features for an IT risk platform. I bring pragmatic problem-solving, cross-team collaboration, and a focus on production-ready systems.
