@igorlushchyk
Engineering Manager and Payments domain leader scaling AI-first infrastructure and teams, building mission-critical platforms at Adyen and Miro.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Engineering Manager with deep payments domain expertise and a track record of scaling teams and building mission-critical infrastructure. I’ve built AI/ML capabilities that power real production outcomes—from payment optimization to enterprise AI SRE platforms.
At Adyen, I was a core member of the data infrastructure team and created Alfred, the ML model serving platform behind Uplift. I delivered a petabyte-scale, security-first private cloud data platform and helped bring model production time from months to hours.
At Miro, I led the evolution of the data platform, scaling engineering teams from 5 to 12 and orchestrating zero-downtime migrations processing billions of events monthly. I established delivery standards, partnered cross-functionally to translate business needs into scalable data solutions, and improved data observability and pipeline performance.
More recently, as Co-Founder & CTO at ResurgoAI, I founded and built an AI SRE platform from scratch—owning everything from architecture to enterprise pilot deployments. I lead with an AI-first engineering philosophy, emphasizing architectural decisions, code quality, automated testing, and high-performing team development.
