What I'm looking for

I'm open to remote or relocation opportunities where I can build scalable, reliable backend services, own systems through production, and contribute to high-throughput distributed platforms.

I've built production backend systems at Love For Data, Securiti.ai, VentureDive/NexDegree, and KNYSYS using Python, Django, FastAPI, REST APIs, and AWS. My work spans fintech and screening workflows, privacy and compliance SaaS connectors, medical document processing, and fraud detection platforms.

I've improved backend performance by 35%, increased data scan coverage by 8%, and helped deliver systems serving 100,000+ concurrent users. I take ownership from implementation through deployment and production support, and I've led projects, reviewed code, and mentored a team of four engineers.
