@alexanderkolesnikov
I build high-load backend, AML/KYC, and AI-powered products from end to end.
What I'm looking for
I've built production AML/KYC platforms and APIs at Coinfirm, including automated Dow Jones PEP and sanctions screening, identity flows, and onboarding capabilities.
At Travelplanet.pl, I built a DDD travel-booking API and Go/PHP microservices for international teams, improving platform integration through SQL optimisation, refactoring, CI/CD, and observability.
I also build AI-first products end to end, including Sanqto, a sub-30 ms sanctions-screening platform, AlexChange payment automation, and Clippy, a macOS clipboard manager delivered through multi-agent development.
