Hands-on Python/C# Backend & DevOps Engineer

To Hiring Manager,

My name Mikhail Toptchi,

I have over 10 years of IT experience in big institutions and corporations (USA and Canada). I am looking for a hands-on programmmer position.

Experience with Python, FastAPI, Django, Celery, RabbitMQ, asyncio, MinIO, Docker, and Kubernetes services.

Experience developing REST services using various technologies: Rust, Python, C#, Rust, C++, Java.

Independently developed full-cycle DevOps processes and TDD strategies for projects. As a software engineer, lead developer, and team lead, I handled task definition, subsystem design, and project infrastructure (CI/CD, TDD, unified project structures), as well as the adaptation of existing packages/libraries and hands-on system development. I developed and maintained real-time systems—specifically for real-time pricing of bonds, ETFs, and financial instruments.

Some systems were implemented as directed graphs (handling on-the-run/off-the-run securities, term structures, futures, options, etc.), while others were built as command-based data processing packages.

I developed integration bridge projects—including code snippets with connection examples, testing utilities, and user documentation—to facilitate the integration of C# and C++ projects across external organizations and internal departments. I independently designed end-to-end DevOps workflows and TDD strategies for these projects. I have experience working with AI agents and LLMs, MCP, Langchain. Fluent in English.

Best regards,
