What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a backend role where I can design high-load, reliable microservices and optimize performance deliberately. I want to collaborate with business stakeholders, apply DDD/Clean Architecture, and keep the balance between performance, maintainability, and delivery speed.

I’m a Backend engineer with 5+ years of commercial experience designing and developing high-load distributed systems in Go and Java. I focus on microservices architecture and turn requirements into working solutions with business stakeholders.

At Innotech, I helped develop and scale a fault-tolerant Faster Payments platform processing 1M+ transactions per day. I developed 6 payment microservices, designed inter-service communication via Kafka, and co-designed the PostgreSQL sharding and partitioning scheme for horizontal scaling.

I also migrated the distributed payment system database from Oracle to PostgreSQL and ensured reliable operations on Kubernetes (readiness/liveness probes, autoscaling, Ingress/LoadBalancer, resource tuning). I built a cluster-wide distributed locking mechanism (ShedLock-style) and implemented unit and integration tests that significantly reduced production incidents.

Earlier at БАРС Груп, I designed and developed an MVP web application for access pass requests, integrating with internal record systems and deploying the initial on-prem setup. I value an engineering mindset—balancing performance, maintainability, and development speed—and I apply DDD, Clean Architecture, and SOLID in practice.
