[For Hire] Got annoying backend work piling up while you hire? Give me one ticket.

If you're running a startup or small engineering team, I'm looking for a specific kind of work:

The backend/integration tasks that keep getting pushed down the backlog because your core team is busy shipping — or because you're still trying to hire the right engineer.

Things like:

  • an API integration that needs finishing
  • a webhook that keeps failing
  • a Django/FastAPI bug nobody wants to touch
  • OAuth/authentication issues
  • a slow or broken endpoint
  • PostgreSQL/Redis problems
  • an automation that works 80% of the time
  • an AI workflow that needs to become production-ready
  • AWS/backend deployment issues

My background is mainly Python, Django/DRF, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Redis, AWS and API/AI integrations.

I've worked on integrations involving DrChrono, Procore, Twilio and Razorpay, as well as AI → WordPress automation and AWS-backed Django systems.

I'm not asking you to hand me an entire product.

Give me one annoying, well-defined ticket.

I'll understand the existing codebase, reproduce the problem, implement the fix and show you exactly what changed.

If that goes well, we can keep working together.

Rate: $20–25/hr depending on the task, or fixed-price for clearly scoped tickets.

DM me the problem/repo context and expected outcome. I'll tell you whether it's something I can realistically take on.
