@zhandosbaurzhan
Experienced Tech Lead and Senior Backend Engineer with proven success.
As a Tech Lead and Senior Backend Engineer with over 6 years of experience, I have successfully built high-performance distributed systems and event-driven architectures in the fintech and digital banking sectors. My expertise lies in backend optimization, microservices, and Kafka-based asynchronous pipelines, which has allowed me to drive significant improvements in system performance and reliability.
Throughout my career, I have led agile teams, made critical architecture decisions, and mentored engineers to foster a culture of continuous improvement. At Kaspi.kz, I reduced payment latency by 90% during peak loads and designed an in-house Task Engine to orchestrate complex workflows. My role as Development Team Lead involved directing cross-functional teams and enhancing delivery velocity through Agile practices.
