About

Built and owned a hackathon project (Gritto) with a Python/FastAPI backend that routes user text through a sequence of Gemini agents to produce structured JSON outputs. Has hands-on production deployment experience using Docker/Docker Compose, GitHub Actions CI/CD, AWS App Runner, MongoDB, and secrets management (Doppler + migration to AWS Secrets Manager), plus implemented a chat-like experience via multiple HTTP requests when SSE wasn’t viable.

Key Strengths

  • End-to-end ownership of a FastAPI backend (architecture, implementation, debugging, deployment)
  • Designing LLM agent pipelines to return structured/JSON outputs with explicit schemas
  • Pragmatic debugging of serialization issues (datetime to JSON) in agent contexts
  • Production deployment automation with Docker, GitHub Actions, and AWS App Runner
  • Secrets migration/refactor from GitHub Secrets to AWS Secrets Manager with minimal code changes
  • Designing CI/CD workflows across multiple services and environments (staging vs production)
