What I'm looking for

I am looking for a remote junior backend role to apply and grow my skills.

I am a self-taught Python backend developer with hands-on experience in building efficient APIs and full-stack web applications. My journey in programming has been driven by a passion for technology and a commitment to continuous learning. I specialize in using FastAPI and SQL to create robust backend solutions, and I thrive on the challenge of transforming complex problems into user-friendly applications.

One of my notable projects is the International Space Station (ISS) Tracker Program, where I developed a live web app that tracks the ISS's location in real time. This project not only improved my technical skills but also taught me the importance of optimizing performance, as I successfully reduced file sizes and improved load times significantly. Additionally, I transformed a CLI task manager into a web app, enhancing task management efficiency for users. I am eager to apply my skills in a remote junior backend role, where I can contribute to exciting projects and continue to grow as a developer.
