Implemented RESTful APIs with Node.js and TypeScript for user management and data retrieval. Wrote unit and integration tests for Django applications in Python, and maintained PostgreSQL and MySQL databases through query optimization and schema migrations.

Deployed containerized applications with Docker and Kubernetes to handle peak traffic. Collaborated on scalable database schema design, participated in on-call monitoring and outage response, improved CI/CD pipelines by automating build and test processes, and documented API specifications and system architecture decisions.
