Senior Software Engineer

Summary

Senior Python Backend Developer specializing in building high-performance systems, optimizing data workflows, and maintaining critical services. Led the development of NLP-powered microservices (FastAPI, spaCy) and large-scale data pipelines (ClickHouse, multiprocessing), achieving 10x faster processing of 2TB+ datasets. Automated manual reporting systems and currently maintain 5+ production services, ensuring high availability while implementing performance improvements.

Highlights

Developed a high-performance text moderation NLP service utilizing FastAPI and a custom fine-tuned spaCy model, handling over 2,000 requests per day with a p99 latency under 100ms, and successfully integrated it into the core product pipeline.

Engineered a robust data processing optimization for 2TB datasets, reducing processing time from 1 week to 15 hours through parallel batch processing in Python (Django ORM + multiprocessing) and offloading complex aggregations to ClickHouse (window functions, materialized views), ensuring balanced computational load and preventing memory bottlenecks.

Fostered cross-functional collaboration with Data, ML, and Product teams to resolve complex integration challenges, facilitated critical technical discussions, and streamlined onboarding for new developers to ensure rapid system familiarization.
