Hello, I'm

Selim Reza

Blending deep Python, OOP & DSA expertise with AI-powered workflows to ship secured, production-grade systems. Awarded "Developer of the Quarter" at Join Venture AI.

About

Backend Specialist. AI-Augmented Builder.

I'm a performance-driven Backend Engineer with 1.2+ years of experience designing and shipping secured, production-grade APIs, microservice architectures, and AI-integrated platforms — built with a debugging-first mindset that optimizes the entire product lifecycle.

In this age of AI agents, I blend deep expertise in Python, DBMS, OOP & DSA with AI-powered workflows to ship faster, smarter, and with fewer bugs. From Stripe subscription orchestration to AI-powered property analysis engines behind isolated Docker networks — I build systems that handle real traffic, real money, and real users.

Currently a Promoted Backend Developer at Join Venture AI, with two shipped products at FAARNS under contract maintenance.
