What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead backend architecture and deliver production AI features—microservices, RAG, and agent orchestration—while mentoring a team and building scalable systems on GCP/AWS.

I’m a Senior Back-End Developer and Team Lead with 5+ years of experience building scalable backend systems and AI-powered applications. I design microservices architectures and integrate LLMs into production workflows, including RAG pipelines and orchestrating multi-agent AI systems.

In my recent role at EPAM Systems, I developed an AI-powered legal research platform and served as the core developer of the agent routing system, orchestrating requests across specialized AI agents. I built RESTful APIs and production inference pipelines using FastAPI, OpenAI APIs, and PostgreSQL—while driving reliability through Docker and Kubernetes-based microservices patterns.
