About Kousha
Hey there I'm Kousha. 22,
based in Portugal, building web apps for over 5 years. I work with Python, Django, DRF, FastAPI, React, Next.js, TypeScript, and I'm deep into infrastructure Docker, Docker Compose, Docker Swarm, Nginx, CI/CD pipelines, GitHub Actions, Apache Airflow, and zero-downtime deployments.
I work with PostgreSQL, Redis, MSSQL, AWS S3, Trino, and Hive daily.
I built a production AI SaaS integrating Anthropic, OpenAI, and Groq APIs with real-time streaming, full auth with 2FA and OAuth, and deployed it all myself. I also hunt bugs on Bugcrowd got paid for finding a critical security flaw in Linktree.
I'm available for remote projects backend, full-stack, DevOps, or security work.
Let's build something.
