Backend Software Engineer · Ottawa
Mansi Joshi
Reliable backend services, data pipelines and internal tooling in Python and SQL, shipped through containerized CI/CD.
Who I Am
I'm a backend-focused software engineer in Ottawa with a strong foundation in Python, SQL and data processing architectures.
I build reliable backend services, internal tooling and data pipelines that keep systems fast and their data intact. I ramp up quickly on new codebases, work closely with cross-functional teams, and integrate machine learning detection models to keep platforms trustworthy and secure.
