MongoDB (Atlas)
asyncio
Streamlit (nice to have)
pytest (unit and integration)
Soft skills

More intelligence
Curiosity
Interest in software development and particularly in Python

Jira or any other crusty nonsense
Love, kisses, waiting for your message,

I’m a Python developer with practical experience building and deploying Streamlit applications, including an AI-based health companion app (Healix AI). I’m comfortable working independently — taking tasks from idea to code to deployment. I use Git/GitHub daily for version control, branching, pull requests, and clean commit history.
I’m currently integrating LangChain and deploying small services using AWS Lambda + MongoDB Atlas, so the tech stack you’re using aligns with what I’m actively working on. I enjoy direct communication, clear responsibilities, and shipping features rather than sitting in meetings.
I can start immediately.
Hourly rate: negotiable (€10–€20 depending on scope).
Happy to jump on a short call to discuss the role and expectations.
I’m Ayush Singh, a Python developer with a strong interest in backend systems, automation, and AI-assisted workflows. I’ve gone through productflight.io and the idea of transforming data between e-commerce systems using a mix of humans + AI is genuinely interesting.
Infrastructure basics with Terraform / IaC concepts
Comfortable working independently: picking tasks, improving tickets, deploying without hand-holding
Daily GitHub workflow — one meaningful PR per day is realistic for me
Streamlit isn’t my core focus, but I’m comfortable picking it up quickly if needed.
Logistics:
Hourly rate: €XX / hour (open to discussion)
Availability: Up to 32 hours/week
Start date: Can start within X days
Time zone: CET ±4 works for me
I value direct communication, minimal meetings, and getting real work shipped. Strong language doesn’t scare me — bad code does
No corporate nonsense on my side either.
Happy to share my CV and GitHub right away and jump into a quick interview if this looks like a fit.
Please find my CV attached for your review.
Apologies if the previous preview didn’t load correctly — the platform didn’t seem to support PDF previews.
Happy to share more details or discuss further if needed.
Thank you for getting back to me and for the consideration.
I appreciate you keeping my application in mind, and I’d be happy to reconnect in the future as I continue building experience.
