MICHAEL ADEBOYE

Back-end Software Engineer & Systems Developer

Remote • Vollzeit

Aug 2023 - Present • 3 yrs 3 mos

Working as a Backend Software Engineer, I design, build, and document production-ready backend services, REST APIs, and data processing workflows using Python, Django REST Framework, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Redis, and Celery. My engineering work focuses on scalable software architecture, asynchronous task processing, and integrating artificial intelligence and machine learning pipelines into web infrastructure. Key Responsibilities & Technical Contributions: • RESTful API Development & Schema Design: Engineer high-throughput API endpoints, design JSON request/response models, and implement authentication, rate-limiting, and error-handling mechanics for scalable web applications and micro-projects (e.g., predictive maintenance monitoring systems). • AI & Vector Data Infrastructure: Integrate modern AI frameworks, vector databases (pgvector), and machine learning model endpoints into backend microservices, enabling real-time telemetry processing, similarity search, and automated system diagnostics. • Technical Documentation & Developer Enablement: Write comprehensive internal system documentation, Architectural Decision Records (ADRs), database ER diagrams, OpenAPI specs, and developer onboarding guides that allow cross-functional teams to integrate seamlessly with backend services. • Code Optimization & System Reliability: Conduct code reviews, implement unit and integration testing suites, optimize SQL queries and indexing, and write clear post-mortem logs to ensure high system reliability and maintainability.

Freelance Technical Writer & Technical Ghostwriter

Freelance / Digital Agency Partner • Freiberufler

Sep 2022 - Present • 4 yrs 2 mos

As a specialized Freelance Technical Writer and Ghostwriter, I partner with developer tool startups, technical founders, CTOs, and software engineering teams to turn complex system architectures into accurate, scannable, developer-focused content. Bridging hands-on software development with rigorous editorial standards, I deliver end-to-end documentation, technical educational assets, and executive thought leadership. Key Responsibilities & Deliverables: • Developer Documentation & API References: Author comprehensive API documentation (OpenAPI/Swagger formats), RESTful endpoint specifications, request/response payload schemas, cURL/Python integration guides, and SDK quickstarts that reduce developer onboarding friction. • Technical Articles & Code-Backed Tutorials: Write in-depth technical tutorials, architecture breakdowns, and trade-off analyses covering Python, Django, FastAPI, database optimization (PostgreSQL, pgvector), and AI/ML backend infrastructure (RAG pipelines, vector search, LLM orchestration). • Executive Technical Ghostwriting: Ghostwrite authoritative engineering articles, LinkedIn thought leadership posts, and technical newsletter deep-dives for CTOs, lead architects, and startup founders. I translate raw code repositories, architectural decision records (ADRs), and interview transcripts into cohesive, publication-ready executive pieces. • Information Architecture & Review: Structure complex documentation portals, build logical navigation hierarchies, and conduct technical accuracy reviews to ensure all code snippets, edge cases, and architectural workflows are fully functional and up to date.

Documentation Editor

Freelance • Freiberufler

Sep 2025 - Aug 2026 • 11 mos

In my role as Lead Documentation Editor for an established organisational press unit, I oversee editorial governance, structural content planning, and final publication quality for long-form written materials, official documentation, and public-facing reports. I manage multi-stage editorial pipelines, ensuring high clarity, logical flow, precise terminology, and consistent organisational voice across all published media. Key Responsibilities & Accomplishments: • Editorial Workflow Management: Direct developmental editing, line editing, and copyediting cycles for high-stakes written documentation, guiding content from initial rough drafts through technical review to final distribution. • Information Architecture & Style Enforcement: Establish standardized style guidelines, formatting protocols, and content taxonomies to streamline contribution workflows, eliminate redundancy, and maintain strict readability across long-form publications. • Quality Assurance & Fact Verification: Review and refine complex organizational documents, verify cross-references, and ensure all materials communicate dense information clearly to both technical and non-technical readerships under tight deadlines. • Contributor Mentorship & Editorial Guidance: Provide structured editorial feedback, outline rubrics, and collaborate directly with writers and technical contributors to elevate content quality, improve logical argumentation, and maintain publication integrity.
