With over 10 years of experience in backend engineering, I specialize in designing and building scalable, high-performance, and event-driven architectures for cloud-native applications. My expertise spans across Python, Django, PostgreSQL, and AWS, focusing on API development, microservices, and serverless systems.

As a technical leader and mentor, I thrive in guiding engineering teams, conducting code reviews, and driving best practices in scalability, performance optimization, and security. My passion for continuous learning has led me to explore DevOps, CI/CD, infrastructure as code (Terraform), and data engineering with Apache Airflow.

• ✅ Architect and develop API-driven, event-driven, and microservices-based applications
• ✅ Optimize system performance by reducing response times and ensuring high availability
• ✅ Design and implement scalable, secure cloud solutions using AWS (Lambda, API Gateway, SQS, DynamoDB, EventBridge, EKS)
• ✅ Mentor engineers, lead code reviews, and enforce best practices in software design and cloud security
• ✅ Implement CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, ArgoCD) and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
• ✅ Build data pipelines, ETL workflows, and automation solutions with Apache Airflow

• Python, JavaScript

• Django, Django REST Framework

• AWS (Lambda, S3, API Gateway, SQS, EventBridge, CDK, DynamoDB, EKS)
• Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes (EKS)

• PostgreSQL, SQL, NoSQL (DynamoDB, MongoDB, Redis)

• OAuth2, OpenID, Snyk, OWASP, Scalability & Performance Optimization

• Apache Airflow, Kafka, RabbitMQ, CI/CD (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, ArgoCD)

I’m always looking to push my boundaries—whether it’s working on AI-driven podcast tagging (SeekPodCast.ai), contributing to open-source projects, or mentoring aspiring developers. I believe in lifelong learning, continuous improvement, and sharing knowledge with the community.
