About Me

Andrea Ferrer Hamilton picture

Backend-Focused Software Developer with a passion for building efficient, scalable solutions using Python, Django, and AWS. I thrive on solving real-world problems and have a proven track record of streamlining workflows and driving measurable results.

My journey from educational leadership to software development gives me a unique perspective on problem-solving and team dynamics. I’ve consistently delivered impactful results, including a 40% reduction in development cycles and 60% performance gains through technical innovation.

Featured Project: I recently led the development of a full-stack Volunteer Management System, integrating Django REST APIs, PostgreSQL, and a responsive React interface. The platform includes secure authentication, robust data management, and an AI-powered chatbot for onboarding and support.

I’m committed to continuous learning and staying ahead of technology trends. As an AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner, I focus on building future-ready solutions and enjoy collaborating with mission-driven teams—especially in education and community-focused sectors.

Key Achievements:

  • Reduced Docker build times from 30 to 5 minutes
  • Optimized workflows for 40% faster development cycles
  • Delivered 60% performance improvements through technical solutions
  • Led 15+ colleagues through complex technical transitions

I’m open to new opportunities where I can contribute my backend expertise and passion for impactful technology to collaborative, innovative teams.
