About me #

I’m a backend engineer with over 6 years of experience, specializing in Python and distributed systems.

These days, I work mostly with FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Redis, and RabbitMQ. I’m well-versed in the asyncio ecosystem and use it to build high-throughput and reliable systems. I enjoy designing robust APIs and backend architectures that scale smoothly and fail gracefully.

I’ve had plenty on-hands experience with infrastructure tooling - including Docker, Kubernetes, Nomad, Consul, Vault, Ansible, and Terraform - especially across previous roles and side projects. Clean automation and reliable deployments are an integral part of how I work.

I’m an active open-source contributor and speaker, maintaining several Python libraries and presented at multiple PyCon-s.
