What I'm looking for

I seek backend roles where I can design scalable, secure APIs, lead teams, work in Agile cross-functional environments, and solve performance and reliability challenges.

I am a backend engineer focused on designing and building scalable, secure APIs using Go, Python, and JavaScript. I prioritize clean, maintainable code and using the right tools to solve real-world problems.

At AremxyPlug I led backend development and integrated third-party payment APIs, engineered RESTful services for virtual accounts, and improved performance using Go concurrency primitives to reduce latency by 40% under high load.

In healthcare backend work I designed normalized data models with PostgreSQL and MongoDB, implemented RBAC with JWT to eliminate unauthorized access, and integrated analytics to support pricing and revenue decisions.

I collaborate closely with product managers, designers, frontend engineers, and QA in Agile teams, and continually upskill through targeted Go and web development training to deliver reliable backend solutions.
