About

I am a senior software engineer with 10 years of experience. In the past, I worked in Yandex and Google, and as a Quantitative Developer in Jump Trading. In each of those companies, I've been interviewing both new grads and experienced candidates. Right now I work in a self-driving startup (Wayve).

In addition, I have got an extensive background in competitive programming: I am an ICPC gold medalist, qualified multiple times for TopCoder, Google Code Jam, and Facebook Hacker Cup.
