Summary
Python Backend Developer with ~2.5 years of experience building backend systems and APIs, including
domain experience in FinTech and AI-assisted workflows (LLM integrations). Built an internal data-collection
service that cut transaction processing time by ~70% and a liquidity pool detection service ~20x faster than
third-party APIs, while eliminating recurring third-party API costs across a system of 11 microservices. Wrote
onboarding documentation in Notion and walked teammates through codebase logic to support smoother
onboarding. English proficiency at B2 level. Looking to keep growing as a backend developer, deepening my
skills and taking on more architectural responsibility over time.

Professional Experience
Quanter, Python Backend Developer 07/2025 – 03/2026
Developed and maintained fintech-related backend services using Python and
•

FastAPI across a system of 11 microservices, each exposing 5+ REST endpoints
with authentication, role-based access control, and complex data relationships.
Designed a microservices architecture with clear separation of responsibilities,
•

improving scalability and maintainability of the system.
Built a liquidity pool detection service that identified newly created pools within
•

under a minute, cutting detection time by ~20x compared to third-party APIs with
~20-minute delays, and calculated TVL and trading volume.
Replaced third-party APIs with cached/stale data by building an internal data-
•

collection service that persisted token data directly to a database — speeding up
downstream transaction processing by ~70% and eliminating recurring costs of
paid third-party API subscriptions.
 Used Temporal to orchestrate user-triggered strategy workflows across multiple
•

microservices, replacing a custom-built orchestrator and significantly speeding
up workflow development and execution.
Used Redis to serve frequently-changing, real-time data and cache API gateway
•

endpoints, while Celery handled background tasks for per-user processing.
Implemented CI/CD pipelines and deployed services on Kubernetes clusters.
•

Backend Developer, NDA 10/2024 – Present
Designed and built backend systems for multiple freelance projects using Python,
•

Django, DRF, FastAPI, and Flask, owning architecture decisions from schema
design through deployment.
Designed and implemented REST APIs with JWT-based authentication, role-based
•

access control (RBAC), and complex relational data models; designed PostgreSQL
and SQLite schemas tailored to each project's domain logic.
Containerized services with Docker and maintained clean Git/GitHub workflows
•

across projects, including branching strategy and code review practices.
Integrated LLMs (OpenAI, Gemini, Ollama) into production features and internal
•

tooling - built AI-assisted functionality for end users and used LLMs to speed up
development cycles and boilerplate generation.
Built asynchronous Python services and data-collection pipelines (BeautifulSoup,
•

Scrapy, Selenium) for scraping and processing data from external sources at scale.

Projects
Prepario - AI Interview Simulator 04/2026 – 05/2026
Full-stack AI interview simulator with JWT/OAuth authentication, rate limiting,
•

and LLM-based evaluation (Gemini), designed for structured technical interview
practice with secure, scalable backend architecture

DRF Library API 06/2025 – 07/2025
