What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can lead full-stack delivery, modernize backend performance, and strengthen CI/CD/DevOps—while integrating AI/LLM capabilities responsibly.

I’m a Senior Full Stack Engineer with 9 years building and scaling production-grade web applications across the full stack. I bring strong expertise in CI/CD automation and DevOps practices, with hands-on experience integrating AI/LLM APIs like OpenAI to accelerate delivery.

I’ve architected and developed scalable microservices using Python (Django, FastAPI) and React.js, delivering measurable gains such as ~30% faster API response times and ~35% higher system throughput through WebSockets, Redis caching, and Celery task queues. I also modernize backend services by migrating from Django REST Framework to FastAPI to reduce API latency by ~20% and improve query efficiency.

I’m a proven technical leader who mentors engineering teams and architect scalable, high-performance solutions across the SDLC. I translate complex business needs into secure, maintainable, enterprise-grade systems, while strengthening release reliability through Docker, Kubernetes, AWS (EC2/S3/RDS), and automated testing.
