About

Hi, I am Nikita! I have 12+years of experience in software development and 6+years in management.

I have a lot of experience in mentoring in my native language, 300+ sessions and I want to start mentoring in English, I hope we can help eachother :)

I started as a full-stack developer, changed language from PHP to Golang, changed product to infrustructure development, I have been in roles of Software Engineer, Tema Lead, Engeneering Manager. Now I am the Head of DBaaS at Avito (Big Tech in Russia).

I have experience in:
- Golang
- Kubernetes
- Application architecture
- System Design
- Microservice Architecture (MSA)
- Software development culture & processes (code review, design reviews etc)
- Team leadership
