Rami Adel Shawky.

Python Backend Engineer

I build backend services that hold up under real traffic, plus the Docker, Kubernetes and AWS pipelines that put them there.

Profile

A year and change of production experience across REST APIs, Django platforms and data-heavy SaaS, with a habit of not stopping at the application layer.

Most of my work sits where the API meets the database and the deployment: writing the endpoints, shaping the schema, tuning the queries behind them, then containerising the whole thing and shipping it through a pipeline I built.

Docker, Kubernetes and AWS aren't a side interest; they're how the code gets to production. CKAD-certified, and currently going deeper into FastAPI for async, high-throughput services.
