DevOps Developer
Backend Engineer, Data Science
Employers can request a warm introduction to this candidate.
Summary
I build backend and cloud systems, from Python and FastAPI services to the Terraform and Kubernetes infrastructure that runs them. I built a recommendation engine from proof-of-concept to production on AWS and cut CI/CD runtime failures by 80% on IBM’s SaaS team. I’m looking for a full-time new-grad role in software, cloud/DevOps or computer engineering, in Canada or the US.
