SUMMARY

Backend Engineer (Python) with 3+ years of experience building B2B platforms end to end. Took a
digital commodity trading platform connecting traders, logistics providers, and financial partners
from an early stage to production as a core member of a lean, AI-native engineering team:
designed the system architecture, drove technical decisions, shaped engineering processes, and
shipped features from database schema to API to deployment. Works autonomously: proposes
solutions, takes ownership of outcomes, and delivers independently from problem definition to
production. Hands-on with FastAPI, async SQLAlchemy 2.0, PostgreSQL, LangChain/RAG,
Docker, and cloud deployments.
