API, Backend & Frontend Development

Design and development of REST (and non-REST) APIs, backend systems, and the frontend interfaces that consume them.

What this service covers

I build backend systems and the APIs that connect them to a frontend, starting from how the system is designed rather than jumping straight into code. A well-designed API is the difference between a project that stays maintainable and one that turns into a liability six months in.

This typically includes:

  • API design — defining resources, contracts, and conventions for REST APIs (or other protocols when the use case calls for it, e.g. real-time communication), so the system stays consistent as it grows.
  • Backend development — building the server-side logic in Go (for performance-sensitive, concurrent systems) or Python with Django/FastAPI (when a fuller framework or lighter weight, respectively, fits the project better).
  • Frontend development — building the interfaces that consume those APIs, with modern Web framework, kept in sync with the backend’s data model.
  • Containerized deployment — packaging the finished system with Docker, so it can be deployed consistently across environments, including possible on-premise infrastructure.

Who this is for

Associations, small businesses, or teams that need a custom system — a management tool, an internal dashboard, a service-facing API — built with the same attention to API design and code organization I’d want in my own projects, rather than a quick patchwork solution.
