Senior Full Stack & AI Developer specializing in Python, React, cloud-native systems, and LLM integrations.
What I'm looking for
I am a Senior Full Stack & AI Developer with 6+ years of experience building scalable, high-performance web and AI-driven applications. I specialize in Python frameworks (Django, Flask, FastAPI), React, and cloud-native solutions on AWS.
I have engineered microservices, REST/GraphQL APIs, and CI/CD pipelines while leading cross-functional teams to deliver reliable systems at scale. I integrate lightweight LLMs, OpenAI, LangChain, and vector databases to power conversational and RAG applications.
My projects include high-traffic fintech and POS platforms, multi-site web scraping pipelines, and production conversational assistants using Pinecone and AWS Lambda. I focus on automation, security (JWT/OAuth), and performance optimizations that reduce latency and improve user experience.
I bring hands-on expertise in deploying containerized applications (Docker, Kubernetes), observability (ELK), and data pipelines (NumPy, Pandas, BigQuery) and I am motivated to solve complex problems with robust, maintainable systems.
