Professional Summary

I don't just write code — I think in systems. From the moment a request hits a server to the second data lands in a database, I care deeply about what happens in between. With a backend-first mindset and full-stack reach, I build web applications that are secure by design, efficient under load, and maintainable by teams. My work spans Node.js/Express and Python (Django) APIs, PostgreSQL schemas modelled with Prisma ORM, and React interfaces that consume them cleanly. Authentication is where I go beyond the basics — I've built production auth systems with Passport.js, JWT rotation, and OAuth2 that prioritise both security and developer clarity. I've submitted a pull request to Fastify, one of Node's fastest HTTP frameworks, improving documentation structure and fixing broken links. I ship on Vercel, Heroku, and Render, containerise with Docker, and wire CI/CD pipelines so delivery is never the bottleneck.
