Saadat Sultanalieva
Python Backend Developer
Hi! I'm Saadat: a backend developer, a software engineer and a builder.
My programming journey began at the American University of Central Asia, where I built a solid CS foundation — Object-Oriented Programming in Java, Algorithms & Data Structures in C++, and Operating Systems. But the real spark came from putting that knowledge to work. Since then, I've been building backend systems across E-commerce, Game Dev, FinTech, HealthTech, and AI — mostly in Python, which became my language of choice for its elegance and depth. My go-to stack includes FastAPI and Django, and I enjoy working across the full backend picture: designing microservices, managing task queues with Celery and RabbitMQ, and working with Redis and PostgreSQL. In 2023, I was selected for Google Summer of Code with the Apache Software Foundation — a competitive, globally recognized open source program — which remains one of my proudest milestones. I've also had the chance to collaborate with remote teams in the US and Moldova — which taught me a lot about communication, ownership, and building things together across time zones.
I am always open to talk about tech, so feel free to contact me:
