As a freelance software developer and DevOps engineer on Fiverr, I specialize in building scalable automation solutions and backend infrastructure, working closely with clients to solve complex problems. Key projects include: --->Data Scraping & Automation: Designed and implemented a multithreaded data scraping bot using Python and Selenium, optimized for speed by reducing runtime by 80%. Scraped over 35,000 pages of dynamic, JavaScript-rendered content and automated the process for long-term use. -->Web Application Development: Developed a full-stack web solution using Flask and JavaScript to scrape and display real estate data from Redfin.com, with features including Excel (.xlsx) data export using pyXL2, SQLite3 integration for data persistence, and cloud deployment on a Google Cloud N2 virtual machine. --->DevOps & Cloud Automation: Automated the booking of Spanish Consulate appointments using a Python Selenium bot, hosted on Azure VMs with file-based logging and randomized intervals for anti-scraping measures. Integrated email notifications using SMTP to alert clients upon successful reservations. --->CI/CD and Automation Pipelines: Built and deployed a Zapier-based solution to auto-populate spreadsheets via encrypted API endpoints, ensuring seamless data updates across systems with minimal manual intervention.

About

I build infra for things that actually matter. I’m an MTS at RISA Labs, working on cloud and platform systems that help cancer patients get treatment faster. Real impact, real production systems. I live in DevOps / infra land — Kubernetes, cloud, Python, distributed systems, and everything it takes to ship and operate at scale. I like owning systems end-to-end and keeping them boring in production. I’ve been a founding member at two early-stage funded startups, including a YC-backed company, which means moving fast, wearing too many hats, and being accountable for what ships (and what breaks). Forever chasing 100% — perpetually stuck at 99.999. PS, Someone please clear the dead letter queue
