Backend Developer Intern
May 1, 2026 - Present
Python, Django, Fastapi, Langchain, LangGraph, AWS, Celery, Redis, PostgreSQL, SQL, SQLite, Typescript, Next.js, Express.js
- 6 production products across AI, hiring, communications, social, food delivery, and nonprofit domains: Owned backend development from architecture through production, working primarily with Django, FastAPI, Node.js, PostgreSQL, and Redis.
- 20+ agent tools + 5+ secured APIs: Architected an agent-heavy RAG system from the ground up using LangGraph and LangChain. The system retrieved fresh backend data on demand while maintaining candidate-, job-, authentication-, and visibility-level constraints instead of relying on static information embedded in the LLM context.
- 83% faster document generation: Reworked an unreliable image-heavy generation pipeline that took 60+ seconds per document. Caching, background jobs, S3-backed storage, lifecycle cleanup, and image optimization brought generation down to ~10 seconds while reducing documents from ~10 MB to ~1 MB.
- 20+ Microsoft Graph APIs + 30+ agent tools: Built an AI communication system around Microsoft Graph with persistent thread-level memory, allowing the system to continuously use previous conversation context to adapt response tone, structure, formatting, and content.
- 4+ integration categories: Built webhook- and API-driven workflows across Microsoft Graph, Meta/Instagram, messaging, payment, and authentication providers, including external-event-triggered conversational workflows.
- 10+ client discussions: Helped translate business requirements into technical solutions, proposed product improvements, defined implementation approaches, coordinated with frontend engineers, and owned backend delivery through production.
- Production-first backend engineering: Worked across AWS, Docker, CI/CD, PostgreSQL, Redis, background workers, and structured logging, while personally diagnosing and resolving backend and production issues across the products I owned.
