About this gig

Slow APIs and messy backend code cost you time, money, and users. I build clean, production-ready Python backends that just work.


I'm a Python backend engineer with 6+ years of experience, currently a Product Engineer at a software company where I build and ship backend systems end-to-end. I specialize in FastAPI and Django REST Framework, building APIs that are fast, secure, and easy to maintain.


What I can build for you:

  • REST APIs with FastAPI, Django REST Framework, or Flask
  • - Database design and integration (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis caching)
  • - Secure authentication (JWT, OAuth2)
  • - Background tasks with Celery
  • - API documentation (Swagger/OpenAPI)
  • - Bug fixes and performance optimization on existing Python backends

Why work with me:

  • Clean, well-documented code you can actually maintain
  • - Clear communication throughout the project
  • - Production experience, not just tutorials

Send me a message with what you're building and I'll tell you exactly how I'd approach it before we start.
