What I'm looking for

I seek remote, freelance, or contract backend roles (IST/APAC) owning architecture-to-deployment, improving API performance, and collaborating with distributed teams.

I am a seasoned Python fullstack engineer with 15+ years building scalable, production-grade APIs and data-driven platforms, specializing in Django, FastAPI, MongoDB, PostgreSQL and AWS. I have strong front-end exposure with React and Vue and extensive remote collaboration experience across the U.S. and APAC.

My core stack includes Python, Django, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, React, Next.js, Tailwind, and AWS. I specialize in designing clean backend architectures, REST APIs, automation scripts, scalable cloud deployments, and modern front-end interfaces.

I’ve worked remotely across multiple time zones and understand the importance of communication, clarity, and reliability. Whether it’s developing a new product, improving an existing codebase, or handling complex backend workflows, I always aim for clean code, maintainability, and fast delivery.

If you’re looking for someone who can take ownership, solve problems independently, and deliver results end-to-end — I can help.
