Architected a production-ready REST API backend for a live business website, enabling real-time capture and management of client inquiries and internship applications across 3 API endpoints, using Django REST Framework serializers, views, and PostgreSQL-backed models. Reduced manual deployment setup from 7 manual steps to a single git push by configuring CI-style build commands, automated database migrations, and a custom Django management command for superuser provisioning on Render. Established seamless end-to-end data flow across two hosted environments, ensuring reliable real-time form submissions from Next.js (Vercel) to Django (Render) via CORS policies, environment-based API configuration, and client-side fetch integration.
