    I'm a certified solutions architect for Amazon Web Services with experience in full-stack software development. My typical stack for web development is a React.js front-end paired with a node.js backend hosted on AWS. For mobile development my preferred stack is React-Native but I have experience in native development with Swift for iOS and native Android development in Java. I'd love to help your project at any stage, whether it's UX design, software development, API integration, data migration, or even just bug fixes & documentation. Whether you've got a new idea for an app or need a consult for a redesign on one of your micro-service containers, let me know how I can assist!

I have a proven track record of delivering scalable solutions using Django, Flask, and FastAPI frameworks. ⬇️Let's discuss how I can assist you with your project⬇️ 𝗠𝗬 𝗗𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗟𝗢𝗣𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗖𝗘𝗦𝗦 🔹𝙍𝙚𝙦𝙪𝙞𝙧𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝘼𝙣𝙖𝙡𝙮𝙨𝙞𝙨. I thoroughly analyze the technical assignment or task, seeking clarification for any ambiguous aspects. For larger assignments, I break them down into tasks and further into subtasks. 🔹𝙎𝙤𝙡𝙪𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝘿𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙜𝙣. I devise an implementation plan, creating a new git repository or cloning an existing one. Each task has its own branch. If time allows or if the task requires it, I write tests. 🔹𝙄𝙢𝙥𝙡𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣. I start by developing a minimum viable prototype and then proceed with refactoring. I ensure that the code meets the specified requirements, such as speed or database query optimization. If needed, I perform additional refactoring. Once complete, I run the tests and either merge the changes to the main branch or create a pull request if I lack repository admin privileges. 🔹𝙏𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜. Depending on the pipeline in use, the changes are typically transferred from the development branch to the test branch, where QA engineers evaluate them. If everything is satisfactory, I create a controlled backup of the production environment and introduce the new version. ✅ 𝗪𝗛𝗬 𝗖𝗛𝗢𝗢𝗦𝗘 𝗠𝗘? ✔ Extensive experience developing scalable web applications across diverse industries. ✔ Expertise in Python, Django, and Databases. ✔ In-depth understanding of industry-specific challenges and solutions. ✔ Proven ability to tackle complex technical problems effectively. ✔ Proficient in utilizing AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure cloud-based services. ✔ Committed to delivering exceptional results and ensuring client satisfaction. ✔ Strong advocate for open and transparent communication. ✔ Efficient project management skills, ensuring timely delivery. ✔ Reliable and skilled partner dedicated to bringing your vision to life. 🛠 𝗦𝗞𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗦 🔸𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗲.
