Nicolas C

I’m a Senior AI and Backend Engineer with 8+ years of experience building scalable production systems, APIs, distributed services, and cloud-based applications.

I’m particularly interested in AI-powered software, intelligent automation, backend architecture, API integrations, data-processing systems, and production-grade AI applications.

I’m using beBee mainly to connect with skilled freelancers and independent engineers for potential cooperation on some projects. I’m mainly looking for reliable people who are open to a flexible collaboration. It shouldn’t require a large time commitment, and there may be opportunities to earn more as the projects grow.
