Backend developer crafting scalable systems, resilient APIs, and clean data pipelines. I turn complex infrastructure problems into elegant, maintainable code.
My core backend stack — carefully chosen for reliability, performance, and developer experience.
Fluent in backend languages that scale from prototypes to production.
Comfortable with relational, document, and in-memory stores.
Building REST and event-driven APIs that are fast and well-documented.
From containerization to CI/CD pipelines and cloud deployments.
Asynchronous, fault-tolerant communication between services.
Designing secure, token-based authentication and authorization flows.
A selection of systems I've architected and shipped.
A high-throughput reverse proxy with rate limiting, JWT validation, and request routing built in Go. Handles 50k+ req/s with sub-ms latency.
Event-driven microservice pipeline using Kafka for real-time order ingestion, enrichment, and fulfillment orchestration for an e-commerce platform.
Full-text search backend with typo-tolerance, faceted filtering, and autocomplete, powered by Elasticsearch with a FastAPI layer for scoring customization.
Scalable data ingestion service processing millions of analytics events daily into a time-series warehouse, with deduplication and schema validation.
Centralized authentication microservice supporting OAuth 2.0 social logins, TOTP-based 2FA, and refresh token rotation with device fingerprinting.
Distributed cron-like scheduler with dependency graphs, retry strategies, and a web dashboard for monitoring job execution history and alerting.
Companies and teams I've helped build resilient backend systems.
Lead backend architecture for the core platform serving 500k+ daily active users. Reduced p99 API latency by 42% via query optimization and caching strategies. Mentoring a team of 4 junior engineers.
Built and maintained microservices for a fintech product handling payment processing and ledger reconciliation. Designed the event sourcing pattern for audit compliance.
Delivered REST APIs and database schemas for 8 client projects ranging from SaaS dashboards to e-commerce backends. Stack: Django, PostgreSQL, AWS EC2.
Open to backend engineering roles, consulting, and interesting collaboration.
