About Me
Backend Engineer with a passion for building scalable systems
My Journey
I'm Isaac Amankwaah Anane, a Backend Software Engineer specializing in building robust, scalable systems. With years of experience in API development, database optimization, and system architecture, I've helped companies scale from startups to enterprise-level applications.
My expertise lies in crafting efficient backend solutions using modern technologies like Node.js, Python, and Go, combined with databases like PostgreSQL and MongoDB. I'm passionate about clean code, performance optimization, and creating systems that can handle millions of requests.
When I'm not coding, I enjoy contributing to open-source projects, mentoring junior developers, and staying updated with the latest backend technologies and best practices.
