About Rafael

Ich helfe Unternehmen dabei, Python- und Django-Backends schnell und sauber weiterzuentwickeln. Mein Fokus liegt auf REST-APIs, Integrationen, internen Tools, Refactoring, Tests, Automatisierung und Cloud-Deployments.

Besonders stark bin ich in klar umrissenen Backend-Projekten, bei denen schnelle Umsetzung, pragmatische Entscheidungen und wartbare Lösungen gefragt sind. Ich liefere Ergebnisse, die produktiv funktionieren, sich sauber in bestehende Systeme einfügen und langfristig gut weiterentwickeln lassen.
