Available to hire
Senior Python engineer with 7+ years building secure, scalable server-side applications and REST APIs with Django/DRF and FastAPI. I ship production services with Docker and AWS, design PostgreSQL schemas and integrations, and automate CI/CD with GitHub Actions.
I focus on testing (pytest), performance, and security best practices (TLS/HSTS/CSP). I also have experience redesigning high-traffic WordPress sites and building custom PHP/MySQL web tools; I am comfortable working remotely and collaborating across teams.
