Backend Python developer specialized in building secure and scalable REST APIs using Django, FastAPI and PostgreSQL.
I have 3 years of experience developing backend systems and APIs for institutional and production environments in West Africa.
At SONABEL (Burkina Fasoโs national electricity company), I designed and deployed an internal procurement management platform using Django and PostgreSQL. The system automated manual workflows and reduced request processing time by 40%.
I also built BurkinaGrain API, a production-ready FastAPI service that tracks cereal prices across Burkina Fasoโs regions. The project includes JWT authentication, SQLAlchemy ORM, Docker deployment, and automated testing with pytest.
Core expertise:
โข Python backend development
โข REST API design (FastAPI / Django REST Framework)
โข PostgreSQL database design and optimization
โข Authentication systems (JWT, RBAC)
โข Dockerized deployments on Linux servers
โข Clean, tested, and documented code
I focus on reliability, maintainable architecture, and production-ready backend systems.
Available immediately for remote backend engineering roles.
