About

Backend developer specialising in Go with ~5 years of experience building high-load microservices and distributed systems. I've worked across adtech (Avito), marketplace logistics (Wildberries), and gaming platforms (Marfatech) — always close to the infrastructure layer: message brokers, databases, Linux, and performance optimisation. What I bring: • Production experience with Kafka, NATS+JetStream, RabbitMQ • Deep knowledge of PostgreSQL, Yugabyte, ClickHouse, MongoDB, Redis • Strong Go–Linux integration skills (Unix Sockets, daemons, cron, deb packages) • High test coverage, documentation, code review, mentoring Open to full-time remote contracts
