Cover image for Backend & API Engineering
I architect and build robust backends and APIs that stay fast and reliable under real load. If you have a front end, a mobile app, or a product that needs a solid server-side foundation, I build the engine behind it.
What this covers: REST APIs, authentication and authorization, payment systems, database design, third-party integrations, and high-throughput services — in Node.js/TypeScript or Python/FastAPI, on PostgreSQL or MongoDB.
Ideal for: teams that need a new backend built, a slow or legacy API rebuilt for performance, or a payment/data system engineered to be secure and auditable.
How I work: I design for performance and scale from the start, write typed and tested code, and document everything for handover.
Tech: Node.js, TypeScript, Python, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Stripe, and cloud deployment.
