Senior full-stack engineer delivering scalable Python/React systems on cloud with DevOps and AI-driven features.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Senior Full Stack Engineer with 9+ years of experience designing, building, and scaling software systems that improve operational efficiency and user engagement. My strengths span Python back ends and modern JavaScript front ends, with an architecture-first mindset.
In recent roles, I’ve led end-to-end delivery for client-facing products—building secure FastAPI-based APIs, scalable microservices with Docker and Kubernetes, and event-driven real-time processing using Kafka. I integrate machine learning into production workflows, and I consistently focus on performance, reliability, and measurable outcomes like reduced latency and improved data insights accuracy.
I care deeply about security and compliance, implementing standards such as GDPR and SOC 2 while ensuring safe authentication and encrypted data exchange (OAuth2/JWT/SSL-TLS). I also bring practical DevOps experience (CI/CD, IaC, monitoring/logging) and enjoy mentoring teams while optimizing processes for continuous improvement.
