I'm a Python developer with 10+ years of hands-on experience and 5+ years building high-throughput, globally distributed data APIs. I specialize in harvesting and structuring public web data at scale for AI training and analytics, with deep expertise in designing resilient scraping pipelines and data processing systems.

I created iScraper, a widely used LinkedIn public-data harvester that later became the subject of litigation initiated by LinkedIn. My toolbox spans LLMs, Kubernetes, DevOps, Git, Elasticsearch, MongoDB, and Unix systems, and I'm comfortable taking products from prototype to production while optimizing for performance, reliability, and cost.
