What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can contribute to impactful projects and continue to grow my technical skills.

I am a dedicated Software Engineer with over 3 years of experience in backend development, specializing in building secure and robust APIs. My journey has been marked by significant achievements, including developing a high-performance microservices architecture for the NALO SMS portal and optimizing REST API response times by 30%. I thrive in fast-paced environments where I can leverage my skills in Python, Django, and FastAPI to create scalable systems that enhance user experience and operational efficiency.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a strong commitment to quality and reliability, achieving over 90% code coverage in my test suites. My experience extends to containerization with Docker and automation of CI/CD pipelines, which has significantly improved delivery timelines by 20-30%. I am passionate about mentoring aspiring developers, as evidenced by my role with Django Girls, where I have helped over 30 women in tech build their first projects. I believe in fostering an inclusive tech community and continuously pushing the boundaries of innovation.
