Looking for a Backend developer/Python Internship Opportunity
Hi everyone,
I'm Brian, a backend developer from Kenya and an ALX graduate currently looking for a backend development job, internship, or junior developer opportunity.
My main experience is with Python, Django, Django REST Framework, REST APIs, PostgreSQL, Docker, Redis, Celery, and Git/GitHub.
I've been building practical backend projects, including:
- Task Management API — authentication, CRUD operations, roles, filtering, pagination, recurring tasks, Redis caching, and Docker.
- AI Task Management Agent — working with an MCP server and AI-assisted task management.
- M-Pesa Payment API — Django REST API with M-Pesa payment integration, callbacks, authentication, and automated tests.
- Other Django and API integration projects.
I'm particularly interested in Backend Developer, Python/Django Developer, Software Engineering Intern, or Junior Backend Developer roles.
I'm open to remote, hybrid, or onsite opportunities, including opportunities outside Kenya.

If you know of a company hiring, an internship opportunity, or a project where I could contribute and gain more experience, I'd really appreciate the lead.
Thank you!
