What I Bring to Your Team
Rescue & Stabilization - I've taken over messy codebases, debugged production emergencies, and rebuilt unstable applications into systems that work. If your project is off the rails, I can get it back on track.
Long-Term Reliability - I build relationships with clients who need ongoing support for their Django apps, whether that's maintenance, feature development, or just having a knowledgeable person to call when something breaks.
Clear Communication - You'll never wonder where your project stands. I provide regular updates, explain technical decisions in plain language, and flag issues before they become serious problems.
Technical Background
I work with the full Django stack and have deployed dozens of applications to production:
- Backend Development - Django, Django REST Framework (APIs), Celery (asynchronous task queues)
- Databases - PostgreSQL (primary), MySQL/MariaDB, SQL Server
- Cloud & DevOps - AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Vultr, Docker, Kubernetes
