About

Senior GoLang Engineer with many years of hands-on experience developing scalable, secure solutions for high-load systems serving millions of users. Worked on high-load applications like Bumble/Badoo, one of the world’s most popular dating apps with 40+ million monthly active users, where I spent 3+ years building robust backend systems and solving complex technical challenges at scale.

With a Master’s degree in Security and Network Engineering from Innopolis University (a replica of the SNE program at University of Amsterdam), I bring a security-first mindset to software development, ensuring systems are both scalable and reliable.

Key Achievements

  • Reduced deployment time from days to seconds by creating a configuration management system from scratch using GoLang, Consul, TypeScript, and Vue.js
  • Saved terabytes of storage and improved system performance by migrating background job logs to ClickHouse using GoLang
  • Scaled infrastructure by deploying dozens of microservices to Kubernetes and GCP, and setting up Kafka infrastructure for data streaming to new data centers
  • Created reusable libraries for pub-sub systems using GoLang and Kotlin
  • Enhanced system security by identifying and fixing vulnerabilities in production systems
  • Mentored and taught students through knowledge sharing sessions, fostering team collaboration and learning

Background
