Engineering Lead with 7+ years building high-load platforms, integrating AI/ML, and scaling teams to 100+ engineers.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Engineering Lead with 7+ years in technology leadership, specializing in high-load system design and enterprise architecture. At X5 Tech, I built a new integration platform from scratch (Istio, Kubernetes, React, Python), scaling coverage from 30% to 50% and scaling the unit to 5 cross-functional teams (~100 engineers).
I’ve led product and platform architecture that directly impacts business outcomes—designing a Super App for 350,000+ employees, architecting resilient instant payments and authentication to reach 99.99% uptime, and integrating ML into the SDLC (MLflow, langchain) to reduce manual effort by 30%.
I’m equally focused on engineering excellence and operational impact. From S8 Capital and Renaissance Insurance Group, I migrated monoliths to microservices, adopted event-sourcing, standardized authorization, and improved delivery and reliability through feature toggles, observability (ELK/Grafana), and quality practices (SonarQube, unit tests), while cutting incident response and deployment effort.
