What I'm looking for

I am seeking a challenging IT role at a forward-thinking company where I can apply Python/Django skills, collaborate on impactful projects, learn continuously, and contribute to scalable, secure products.

I am a backend developer focused on building scalable, secure web applications using Python and Django, with strong experience in API design and database management.

I have delivered full-stack projects that include code execution tooling, Celery-based scheduling, LangChain chatbot integration, Cloudinary media handling and AWS deployment. I led a hackathon team that won the “Most Innovative Solution” award and regularly apply Django REST Framework, React and PostgreSQL to production-grade systems.

I thrive in collaborative, fast-paced teams, enjoy mentoring peers, and seek opportunities that value innovation, continuous learning and delivering measurable product impact.
