What I'm looking for
I am a Senior Backend Python Engineer with 5+ years designing, building, and scaling production-grade backend systems using Django, FastAPI, and AWS. I have a proven track record automating high-volume workflows—cutting processing times by up to 98%—and delivering reliable, data-driven APIs for SaaS and e-commerce platforms.
I specialize in async background processing, third-party API integrations, cloud-native deployments, and developer-first engineering practices. I have led automation that dramatically improved fulfillment accuracy and reduced synchronization latency from days to hours, and I mentor developers through instruction, code reviews, and hands-on projects.
