Zeliang Yao — freelance Python developer in Paris

Hi, I'm Zeliang - a freelance developer based in Paris, Ile-de-France with 10+ years of experience in backend engineering, data engineering, and cloud DevOps. I've worked with teams of all sizes - from early-stage startups to established companies - helping them design scalable architectures, automate workflows, and move faster without compromising reliability. My toolkit includes Python, FastAPI, Django, Next.js, Docker/K8s, modern data stacks, and a growing set of Web3 technologies.

My work philosophy?

Build systems that are scalable, clear, and durable - and embrace the reality that in the AI era, one skilled engineer can operate like a full team.

Let's work together

If you're looking for someone who can think independently, communicate clearly, and ship reliable code, feel free to reach out. I'd love to hear what you're building.
