About me: Experienced Python backend engineer specializing in data platforms, APIs, and event-driven pipelines. With over six years of hands-on experience, I excel at building and operating data-intensive backend services, focusing on reliability, asynchronous processing, and integration-heavy platforms. My expertise includes FastAPI, Kafka, PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, Redis, and S3/MinIO, with a strong emphasis on idempotency, cache consistency, and production debugging. I am skilled in CI/CD, observability, and supporting incidents and releases. My academic background includes two MSc degrees, and I bring a collaborative, detail-oriented approach to problem-solving, along with strong communication and analytical skills.
