@victormenezes
Software Developer with expertise in scalable API design and implementation.
What I'm looking for
I'm a dedicated Software Developer with nearly 4 years of experience specializing in designing and implementing scalable APIs using Python, Flask, FastAPI, and GraphQL. My journey has equipped me with a strong proficiency in deploying and managing Kubernetes clusters, as well as building CI/CD pipelines utilizing GitHub Actions and Docker. I thrive in collaborative environments, where I can mentor junior developers and drive improvements in automated testing and code quality.
Throughout my career, I've successfully led the development of APIs for Learning Management Systems, serving over 46,000 users, and have implemented performance optimization techniques that reduced API response times by 50%. My work with AWS integrations, including S3 and PostgreSQL RDS, has enabled me to support high-performance backend systems. I am passionate about fostering a culture of automated testing, achieving over 95% coverage of implemented features, and significantly reducing execution times for tests.
