Crafting reliable, scalable server-side systems · Django · REST APIs · PostgreSQL
I'm a Backend Engineer with nearly 2 years of professional experience building production-grade web applications and APIs. My work centers on designing systems that are maintainable, performant, and built to scale — from data model design through deployment.
I specialize in the Python/Django ecosystem, with hands-on experience in RESTful API architecture, real-time features with Django Channels, async task processing with Celery, caching strategies, and relational database design. Outside of my main stack, I sharpen problem-solving skills through competitive programming.
