Python backend engineer building systems that scale.
I design APIs, microservices, bots, and automation systems in Python. Clean architecture, full test coverage, and code that keeps working as you grow.
from fastapi import APIRouter, Depends from .deps import get_db, current_user router = APIRouter(prefix="/orders") @router.get("/{id}", response_model=Order) async def get_order( id: str, db = Depends(get_db), user = Depends(current_user), ): order = await db.orders.find_one({ "_id": id, "owner": user.id, }) if not order: raise HTTPException(404) return order
What I build
Three focused offerings. Everything starts with a conversation about what you actually need.
Backend & API Engineering
FastAPI and Django REST APIs, microservices, async systems, and the database layer underneath. Test-driven, documented, deployable.
- FastAPI & Django REST
- Async & event-driven design
- pytest test suites & CI
- Authentication & rate limiting
Discord & Telegram Bots
Multi-tenant Discord and Telegram bots. Moderation, economies, events, dashboards, payment flows, and everything in between.
- py-cord, Discord.py, PTB
- Economy & wallet systems
- Multi-tenant architecture
- Admin panels & dashboards
Automation & Integrations
Celery workers, scheduled jobs, webhook bridges, scraping pipelines, and the kind of glue code that connects your stack to whatever third-party API you depend on.
- Celery & APScheduler
- Webhook & event systems
- Web scraping pipelines
- OAuth & SaaS connectors

Who you're hiring
I'm Abubakar. I build backend systems for clients who need code that keeps working past launch.
My focus is Python: FastAPI APIs, async architectures, microservices, and the integrations and bots that sit alongside them. The job stays the same whether it's a Discord bot serving 1,200+ users or a multi-channel fulfillment dashboard. Make it reliable, make it testable, make it boring to maintain.
I work test-first with pytest, document what's worth documenting, and prefer simple solutions that someone else can pick up six months from now. If your last developer left you a hairball, I can probably untangle it.
Common engagements
- Backend logic and REST API design
- Microservices and async system structure
- Discord and Telegram bots, multi-tenant platforms
- Third-party integrations, webhooks, scraping pipelines
- Refactoring existing Python codebases
