About

Professional summary

I am a backend engineer with two years of experience building production-grade Python systems and scalable REST APIs. I specialize in designing reliable backend services that support high-throughput applications.

I have delivered Django REST Framework APIs serving more than 100,000 requests per day. My work includes REST API design, OAuth 2.0 and JWT authentication, standardized error handling, and production support.

I build asynchronous systems using Celery and RabbitMQ to move long-running workloads, such as scraping and report generation, off the request path. I also optimize PostgreSQL and MongoDB through thoughtful schema design and query tuning.

I have experience containerizing services with Docker and Docker Compose and deploying applications on AWS. I automate build, test, release, and security workflows through GitHub Actions, AWS CodePipeline, and AWS CodeCommit.

I am particularly interested in secure backend engineering, software supply-chain security, and AI bill of materials. I have built systems using CycloneDX, Syft, automated vulnerability scanning, and least-privilege cloud access controls.

I have also developed web analysis, job aggregation, and repository-scanning platforms using FastAPI, Django, React, and web-scraping tools. I enjoy building resilient services that solve practical problems from API design through deployment.

Career history

Backend Developer (Python) Broadstone Technologies

I built and maintained backend REST APIs in Flask, supporting endpoint design, integrations, and production operations. I worked on secure, production-ready Python services with an emphasis on reliable delivery.

I integrated automated vulnerability scanning and AI bill of materials generation into CI/CD workflows. I also automated build, test, and release processes with AWS CodeCommit, CodePipeline, and GitHub Actions while provisioning EC2, S3, and IAM resources using least-privilege access.

Associate Software Engineer Programmers Force

I designed and shipped Django REST Framework APIs serving more than 100,000 daily production requests. I implemented OAuth 2.0 service-to-service authorization, standardized API responses and error handling, and improved reliability across backend services.

I introduced Celery and RabbitMQ for asynchronous scraping and report-generation workloads, and optimized PostgreSQL and MongoDB for heavy read/write throughput. I containerized services with Docker and Docker Compose and developed resilient scraping pipelines using BeautifulSoup4 and Selenium.
