What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can build resilient, distributed Go services—owning microservices, observability, and performance—while collaborating in Agile/Scrum. I want impactful work in cloud-native systems with room to improve engineering delivery.

I’m a Senior Golang Developer with 8+ years of experience building scalable, high-performance backend systems. I’m passionate about writing readable, efficient code, and I focus on turning complex requirements into reliable, maintainable services.

Recently at Semrush, I developed SEO automation solutions using Semrush capabilities, third-party services, and AI tools. I designed and built core workflow actions with conditional step execution, and I integrated Langfuse for LLM observability and source-of-truth prompts.

Across my roles, I’ve led migrations from monolithic systems to microservices to improve resilience and modularity. I’ve engineered distributed data processing pipelines (Kafka and gRPC), built B2B data security and real-time observability controls, strengthened API validation and access control, and delivered systems like SSO integrations, LDAP/SAML/OpenID Connect support, and BPMN orchestration tools.
