About this gig

Slow Python code rarely needs a full rewrite. Usually one loop, one function, one hot path is responsible for most of the runtime and once identified, it can be replaced with a compiled native extension while the rest of your code stays untouched.

If you need to optimize Python code without breaking your architecture, my focus is strictly on measured Python performance optimization: profile first, optimize second. I locate the actual bottleneck using cProfile / py-spy, then rebuild that piece in Cython, PyO3 (Rust), or Pybind11 (C++) with before/after benchmarks so the gain is measured, not assumed.


What's included:

1) Profiling pass to identify the real bottleneck, not a guess

2) Native C/C++ or Rust extension (using Cython, PyO3, or Pybind11), matched to your stack

3) GIL bypass & multithreading for genuine multi-core CPU scaling

4) Before/after benchmarks with measured numbers

5) Clean, documented code - your working logic stays 100% intact


Well suited to: data pipelines, NumPy/Pandas processing, backend APIs under load, and any CPU-bound script where adding more servers isn't a real fix.

I build and optimize performance-critical software in C, C++ and Rust, with a focus on low latency, memory efficiency and measurable results. My work covers profiling and hot-path optimization, cache-aware code, SIMD, multithreading, native extensions, networking and low-level debugging. I work from evidence: benchmark first, isolate the bottleneck, make targeted changes, then verify correctness with tests, sanitizers and reproducible before/after measurements. Deliverables are clean, documented and ready to review in Git.
