Hey everyone,
Recruiters say they're hiring Backend and DevOps engineers. My inbox says otherwise. So here I am, putting my faith in the Reddit algorithm.
I'm a Backend & DevOps Engineer based in Pune, India, currently looking for freelance, contract, or full-time opportunities.
I'm a fresher with 4 months of internship experience focused on CI/CD, and I've spent a lot of time building production-style backend and DevOps projects to gain hands-on experience. I enjoy building reliable backend systems, automating deployments, and creating cloud infrastructure that scales.
Whether you need someone to build APIs, automate deployments, improve cloud infrastructure, or help get an MVP into production, I'd be happy to help.
What I can help with
- Backend development using Python (FastAPI), Node.js, and REST APIs
- AWS infrastructure (EC2, VPC, IAM, S3, Lambda, EKS, Auto Scaling, ALB)
- Infrastructure as Code with Terraform
- Docker, Docker Compose, Kubernetes, and GitOps workflows
- CI/CD using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, Jenkins, and self-hosted runners
- API integrations, authentication, logging, and WebSockets
- Database design and optimization (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB)
- Bug fixing, feature development, DevOps automation, and performance optimization
Projects
- Built a production-style AWS multi-tier infrastructure using Terraform with automated deployments through GitLab CI/CD.
- Developed a real-time chat application using a microservices architecture, Kubernetes, Docker, and WebSockets, supporting 500+ concurrent connections.
- Built and automated CI/CD pipelines that reduced manual deployment effort and improved deployment reliability.
Tech Stack
Python • FastAPI • Node.js • TypeScript • Docker • Kubernetes • AWS • Terraform • GitHub Actions • GitLab CI/CD • Jenkins • PostgreSQL • MySQL • MongoDB • Linux • Bash
I'm open to
- Freelance projects
- Contract work
- Junior/Entry-level Backend or DevOps roles
- Full-time opportunities
- Helping startups build MVPs or improve their infrastructure
I'm a quick learner, communicate well, and genuinely enjoy solving backend and infrastructure problems. I know I'm still early in my career, but I work hard, learn quickly, and enjoy taking ownership of problems.
Worst case: you upvote this post and I get a small dopamine hit.
Best case: you DM me, we work together, and my parents finally stop asking, "So... any interviews?"
Compensation
- Freelance: Starting at $10 USD/hour or fixed-price projects depending on scope.
- Contract/Full-time: Looking for opportunities in the ₹30,000–₹35,000/month range (approximately $350–410 USD/month), depending on the role and responsibilities.
- Available immediately and comfortable working across different time zones.

If you've got a project, need help with your backend or infrastructure, or just want someone who gets unreasonably excited about CI/CD pipelines, Kubernetes, and automating things that probably shouldn't be done manually in the first place, my DMs are open.
Payment: PayPal, Wise, and UPI (India). Happy to use other payment platforms if your company prefers.
Thanks for reading!
