Internship Experience
Completed 2,5 month internship program (20.05.2026 - 07.08.2026) at Meduzzen, developed a
backend service for a corporate Learning Management System, which enables companies to
manage employees, organize quizzes, monitor learning process and analyze results. This system
provides role-based access control, automated notifications, quiz import/export, analytics, and
cloud deployment on AWS. The system was developed in Python using FastAPI as framework,
and additionally such tools as SQLAlchemy (ORM), PostgreSQL as DBMS, Redis as caching

system, Alembic as migration tool, Pydantic as data validation tool and Docker for
containerization and deployment. The UI part of the system was developed using React
