My name is Derartu, a full stack software engineer based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Over the past few years, I've built backend systems, RESTful APIs, and cross platform applications using Django, NestJS, and Node.js, with real world experience in API gateway design, Redis caching, and third-party payment integrations. I also build modern frontends with React and Next.js, and mobile apps with Flutter and Kotlin. My focus is delivering complete, working products end to end without sacrificing the backend reliability and system design clients need as they grow. On the backend side, I specialize in building robust, scalable APIs using Django REST Framework, NestJS, and Node.js. I have real world experience designing API gateways, implementing caching strategies with Redis, and applying rate limiting to keep systems performant under load. I've also integrated third-party payment systems, including Telebirr, working directly with both SOAP and REST APIs a service that's often overlooked but critical for any platform handling real transactions. Whether you need a new backend built from scratch or an existing one optimized for reliability, I can help. Beyond the backend, I build modern, responsive frontends with React and Next.js, and cross-platform mobile apps with Flutter and Kotlin. This means I can take a project from idea to fully working product without you needing to coordinate between multiple freelancers one point of contact, consistent code quality, and faster delivery. I've built full platforms end to end, including a microservice based job matching platform, an Instagram style social app (web + mobile), a role based idea submission platform, a plug and play blog system, and a book e commerce platform integrated with the Google Books API. I containerize services with Docker, follow foundational DevOps practices to keep deployments smooth, and apply core application security practices across every API I build. I've worked across a range of project types social platforms, marketplaces, internal tools, and e commerce which means I can adapt quickly to new domains instead of needing everything explained from scratch. Here's a quick breakdown of what I offer: Backend & API Development — Django, NestJS, Node.js Frontend Development — React, Next.js Mobile App Development — Flutter, Kotlin, React Native System Design — API gateways, Redis caching, rate limiting Third-Party & Payment Integration — SOAP, REST, Telebirr Docker containerization & deployment support

Hire a Senior Backend Engineer specializing in Node.js, NestJS, GO and secure Payment API Integration. 30+ completed contracts, 100% Job Success Score, Top Rated on Upwork. I build fault-tolerant fintech systems where failed transactions are caught before they impact revenue. Available for ongoing engagements to own your API layer, database schema, and cloud infrastructure. WHERE BACKENDS QUIETLY BREAK A webhook fires twice and you charge the customer again. A provider times out mid-transaction and your PostgreSQL database and theirs disagree about what happened. A rate limit hits during your busiest hour. Most backends handle the happy path and hope. I build the failure path first: idempotency keys, retries with exponential backoff, dead letter queues, and reconciliation jobs that catch what slipped through. Your GO, Node.js or NestJS system degrades gracefully instead of losing state. 30+ five-star contracts completed on Upwork across fintech, healthcare, and SaaS platforms.
