I'm a web and infrastructure engineer with expertise and proficiency in all things JavaScript/TypeScript, the web, Python and multiple infrastructure-as-code frameworks. I also contribute actively to open-source – see https://github.com/paambaati and https://github.com/orgs/getoslash

Some cool things I've worked on –

1. Built smart crawlers that evaded multiple bot mitigation mechanisms – https://paambaati.github.io/rendering-at-scale/

2. Worked on multiple AWS cost optimization efforts, saving thousands of dollars for past jobs.

3. Built SIM-swap backend infrastructure for one of the biggest telecom providers in Mexico.

4. Managed to get SOC-2 Type I and Type 2 compliance at $LASTJOB in record time.

My primary strengths include –

1. Deep expertise (of multiple years) in all things JavaScript/Typescript, Python, distributed systems and infrastructure/platform.

2. Excellent communication skills; written and verbal. 3. Kind and empathetic. 4. Very good at conflict resolution and de-escalation. 5. Very good at hiring good talent.

I speak and write English fluently – I also blog irregularly at https://httgp.com about things I care about.

I'm currently looking to find full-time senior positions in very hands-on engineering roles. I'm also willing to take managerial positions, as I've played that part for the last few years as well.
