I build Go distributed systems, from marketplace search and fintech integrations to SaaS platforms.
UzbekistanWhat I'm looking for
I've built production backend systems across SaaS, e-commerce, fintech, and healthtech for products including Magnit Tech's marketplace billing platform, Uzum's marketplace search, Mercuryo's crypto-processing wallet, and DOC+ telemedicine.
Most recently, I led a three-person backend team building a SaaS workspace from day one. I designed seven Go microservices with gRPC and Protobuf, delivered tasks, chat, files, RBAC, and notifications, and established Docker, GitHub Actions, Kubernetes/k3s, and an OpenTelemetry-based observability stack.
At Uzum, I developed marketplace search infrastructure around GraphQL, Elasticsearch, Kafka, and Redis, launched ranking experiments, improved typo correction, and supported a new locale on a multi-tenant architecture. At Magnit Tech, I led major partner-billing initiatives, built configurable onboarding flows, and delivered bidirectional Kafka integrations.
I take ownership from requirements and architecture through production delivery, observability, and support. I've also mentored developers moving from PHP to Go and helped replace legacy PHP platforms with Go services.
