Hi, I’m Aria — backend developer with a sweet spot for clean code and cinnamon rolls. I enjoy calm sports, fantasy books, and learning something new every week. Lately, I’ve been working on database tasks over at RespinCl and quietly loving it.
I design and build scalable backend architectures that make sense — and stay solid under pressure. I optimize databases for performance and reliability, especially with PostgreSQL and MySQL. I develop and maintain both REST and GraphQL APIs, keeping things clear for frontend teams. I write clean, maintainable code with a focus on structure and long-term readability. I do code reviews and enjoy mentoring junior developers in a calm, respectful way. I take backend security seriously — from input validation to handling vulnerabilities. I set up CI/CD pipelines to automate builds and deployments for smoother team workflows. I work well in teams that value quality and steady progress over chaos and rush. I pick up new technologies quickly and enjoy exploring unfamiliar stacks. I adapt easily — whether it’s building something from scratch or improving legacy code.
