What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build secure, scalable backend and data-driven systems where I can apply Java, distributed systems, and AI/ML experience to complex products.

I've built backend systems for Vlife, Alfa Bank, Beeline.kz, AlemResearch, and Jusan Bank. At Vlife, I led backend development for a city-wide EV charging platform serving over 2 million users, while at Alfa Bank I delivered secure data exchange pipelines integrating six major banks with zero downtime.

I've also built an internal XMPP corporate messenger, scalable Java and Node.js data-ingestion services, and an EDMS used by roughly 4,000 bank employees. Alongside backend engineering, I evaluate LLM-generated Java code and apply AI/ML work in audio classification, ETL, process mining, and sentiment analysis.
