Alessandro C.

I am a Backend Developer and Database Administrator with solid experience in developing Python-based systems, data extraction via web scraping automation, API development, and database architecture. My approach to projects: I thrive in complex and detail-intensive environments. I’m a curious person, obsessed with small details. I fully commit to understanding the client’s requirements before starting a project. I will develop solutions that not only work but make sense for your needs. I’m reliable with deadlines and transparent about constraints. My ideal clients would be: - Businesses needing custom backend automation, such as scraping data, creating large databases and having REST APIs to perform complex tasks; - Teams that need a developer who understands data, not just APIs; - Projects where scraping, databases, and reliability actually matter. These are my strongest software development skills: Backend Development - Backend development in Python; - Design and development of REST APIs with FastAPI and Flask; - Task schedulers, background jobs, and asynchronous processing; Database Management - Database design, data normalization, and schema refactoring; - Working with spatial data (geometry, centroids, polygons); - Managing multiple databases with independent lifecycles and responsibilities; Web scraping and data extraction - Scraping automation via Requests, Selenium, BeautifulSoup; - Bypassing Cloudflare & reCAPTCHA; - TLS fingerprint simulation and Chrome-like requests; - Advanced use of proxies (static and residential) according to project requirements; - API reverse engineering and request simulation; Real-World Projects & Experience: - Built end-to-end scraping systems capable of accessing protected platforms (login flows, token refresh, captcha solving); - Developed real estate valuation APIs with spatial queries and automated data updates; - Designed backend architectures where multiple complex databases are managed independently and exposed through a unified API layer; My Tech Stack: Programming Languages - Python; - SQL; Frameworks & Tools: - Flask; - FastAPI; - Requests and other HTTP libraries; - Selenium; - BeautifulSoup; Databases - MySQL; - PostgreSQL (including spatial data); - SQLite; Other Tech Skills - Docker; - Bash; - Git, GitLab, and GitHub;
