Node.js, TypeScript, Python, AWS
What I Build in 30-90 Days
Production-grade backend systems designed for reliability and performance at scale.
High-Performance APIs
- REST & GraphQL with OpenAPI documentation
- Auto-scaling handles traffic spikes
- Caching strategies for performance
- Rate limiting & security built-in
Scalable Microservices
- Event-driven for loose coupling
- Serverless & containerized deployment
- Message queues for reliability
- Database per service pattern
Enterprise Security
- OAuth 2.0 & JWT authentication
- Data encryption at rest and transit
- Audit logging for compliance
- Vulnerability scanning & patches
Everything production-ready · Operated, not just delivered · Built for billions of events a year
Start Your Backend NowWhat I Commit To
Only what I can point at.
Commitment 1
Scope or Refund
Fixed price in writing. If I don't deliver what we agreed, you don't pay, and you keep the code. The first working component ships early, not at the end.
Commitment 2
Built to be operated
Dead-letter queues, a transactional outbox, and alerting defined in code rather than clicked into a console. I do not publish an uptime number I have not measured on your system, and I will not sell an SLA there is no contract behind.
Why I can say that:
Embedded in one production estate since 2022 · 97% of my work in repositories I do not own
Battle-Tested at Scale
Backends I have built handle billions of events a year.
Reduction in DynamoDB throttling at peak on a ticketing platform
Across 40+ brands and 4 AWS regions, after automating the pipeline

A Senior Engineer + AI-Powered Workflows
You might wonder how a 30-day sprint works without cutting corners. I don't write every line by hand. The work runs through AI-powered workflows with automated quality gates.
This isn't "AI-generated code" thrown over the fence. It's senior judgment amplified by AI execution speed. Every commit has human oversight. Every architecture decision is made by an engineer with 8+ years of experience.
- Architecture decisions
- Code review & QA
- Client communication
- Security considerations
- Boilerplate generation
- Test coverage expansion
- Documentation
- Repetitive implementations
What this methodology actually produced: 3 reverts in 3,148 commits, with 38 specs committed alongside the code. Self-measured 2026-08-21 from private repositories.
