Cloud & Security Engineer | Python Backend, AI Agents & AWS DevOps

Top Rated Plus engineer with 100% Job Success, helping international teams build, secure, and run reliable software. I deliver across backend development, full-stack, cloud and DevOps, security and compliance, and AI automation. What I do: • Backend & APIs: Python (FastAPI, Django, Flask), Node.js, PostgreSQL / MySQL / DynamoDB / MongoDB, REST APIs, and integrations (Stripe, SMS/USSD, third-party services). • Cloud & DevOps: AWS (EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, IAM, KMS), Terraform, CloudFormation, CI/CD, Docker, and monitoring (CloudWatch, Prometheus, Grafana). • Security & compliance: IAM and least-privilege, GuardDuty / CloudTrail / Config, policy-as-code (OPA/Rego), CIS / PCI DSS / NIST, and data protection. • AI automation: LLM agents, retrieval-augmented (RAG) systems, and AI-assisted development with Claude Code, always reviewed and tested before it ships. • Also: WordPress development, optimisation, and responsive design. I use AI to move fast but check and test everything, communicate clearly, ask questions early when something is unclear, and hit deadlines. AWS Certified, BSc in Computer Engineering (KNUST).
