I am a Python Backend Developer with 6+ years of commercial experience building distributed services and improving production performance. My key experience includes:

• End-to-end development and maintenance of a platform of varying complexity (FinTech, EdTech, high-load, microservices, event-driven, LLM integration)
• Building efficient backend systems for B2B analytics systems
• Deep expertise with PostgreSQL including optimization and API design

Product: Internal services of the bank

Achievements:

• Created 8 microservices of varying complexity using gRPC, RestAPI, GraphQL and EDD (Kafka)
• Implemented 6 Retrieval-Augmented Generation services for processing corporate knowledge, thereby saving 140+ man hours per month by automating information search
• Increased data extraction precision from 0.34 to 0.82 through embedding optimization, customer satisfaction (CSAT) by 35 points
• Implemented and standardized layered architecture in 4 teams (25+ developers), thereby reducing the start time on new features by half
• Unified 12 disparate codebases for a common architecture, increased the speed of development

Technologies: Python, Go, FastAPI, gRPC, GraphQL, Grafana, Helm, LangChain, LangGraph, PostgreSQL, BitBucket, Jenkins, Docker, Kubernetes, OpenShift, MongoDB, GreenPlum, Redis, Kafka, SMTP, OpenSearch, ClickHouse

Product: Tetrika - Online platform for preparing for the Unified State Exam and improving school performance
(More than 110,000 students, project revenue for 2024: 46 million dollars)

Achievements:

• Migrated from Pydantic v1 to Pydantic v2 for the billing domain, which increased productivity and improved type safety
• Initiated implementation of test coverage in billing domain, increasing coverage from 44% to 83%
• Implemented CI pipeline for automated testing, enabling quick error detection
• Transferred bonus accrual service to Decimal, improving accounting compatibility and calculation accuracy
• Onboarded three new employees
• Initiated implementation of ADR (Architecture Decision Records), preserving decision context

Technologies: Python, Tornado, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Docker, Kubernetes, Redis, SQLAlchemy, gRPC, Kafka, aiohttp, pyjwt, bcrypt, pandas, numpy, Cassandra, RabbitMQ, Celery, MongoDB, GraphQL, WebSockets, Aioboto3, S3, httpx, Twilio, aiosmtplib

Product: Automatic calculation of UAV characteristics platform

Achievements:

• Accelerated calculation of prototype's take-off and landing characteristics from 10 to 4 seconds by optimizing basic formulas
• Increased test coverage of wing and tail geometry calculation module from 47% to 81%
• Configured Grafana for monitoring key project metrics, reducing incident response time
• Implemented caching of frequently requested parameters using Redis, reducing database load
• Implemented automatic code validation via flake8, isort, and mypy in GitLab CI pipeline

Technologies: Python, Django, PostgreSQL, Redis, Celery, RabbitMQ, Linux, Bash, Marshmallow, Docker, requests, pandas, matplotlib, numpy, gRPC
