Hi Shani,
Python backend developer here - AWS-native architecture, scalable APIs, production experience with microservices.
Note: You may have seen my front-end application - I'm comfortable across the stack, but backend systems architecture is my primary focus and what I'm most passionate about. Happy to discuss either role based on your team's needs.
What I match:
Python backend (5+ years)
AWS services: Lambda, S3, RDS, SQS/SNS for event-driven workflows
SQL (PostgreSQL, MySQL) + NoSQL (DynamoDB)
RESTful API design & integration
… Docker/K8s (run production K3s cluster)
Git, CI/CD pipelines
Experience highlights:
Built serverless architectures processing high-volume requests
Implemented event-driven systems with proper error handling & retries
Database optimization for read-heavy workloads
Infrastructure as code (CloudFormation/Terraform equivalent)
Question: Are you primarily using Lambda for API endpoints, or also for background processing with Step Functions? Asking because the error handling strategy differs significantly.

928 2 0 1 day100 USDHello,
I'm a Python Backend Developer with 4 years of experience, and I'm very interested in the position at JobTestPrep.
My core expertise aligns well with your requirements. I have 4 years of experience building and maintaining backend systems using Python (primarily with Flask) and strong, hands-on knowledge of SQL (Postgres, MySQL) and NoSQL (MongoDB). I've spent much of this time designing and integrating RESTful APIs for data-heavy systems like custom dashboards and admin panels.
While my main focus has been on the application and database layers, I am a fast learner (as your description requires) and am eager to work deeply within your specific AWS-based microservices architecture (Lambda, SQS, etc.).
I am available for an interview at your convenience to discuss my experience.

I have developed several backend systems that focus on performance, clean design, and long-term stability, so your project feels very familiar to me.
I enjoy building things that can grow easily and stay simple for other developers to maintain.
One thing I'd bring here is a background process that automatically scales workloads using a lightweight event-driven queue. It keeps systems responsive even when traffic spikes, without adding much AWS cost.
I'd be glad to join your team and make the backend fast, secure, and easy to extend.
Thank you!
