What I'm looking for

I am seeking a backend role where I can build scalable APIs, work on data-driven systems, contribute to architecture, and grow within a collaborative international team.

I am a backend developer with strong expertise in Python, Django and related technologies, delivering commercial projects currently used by clients. I adapt quickly to new technologies and have a solid foundation in backend development, database management, and API integration.

I have worked on around ten full-cycle projects, contributing to architecture, performance optimization, and maintainable code. Notable projects include a refrigeration monitoring system, a carpentry production platform, and a large-scale data synchronization service.

I collaborate effectively in international teams, am proficient in English and Polish, and seek a role where I can apply my skills, deliver high-quality solutions, and continue to grow professionally.
