Top SchoolAinur Ibatov is a Senior Software Engineer with eight years of experience, who rose from a 2021 intern to a key backend architect at Yandex, now based in Belgrade. He specializes in systems thinking and scalable backend architectures, with deep hands-on expertise in distributed databases, analytics pipelines, and performance optimization. His work has driven measurable product impact—speeding email delivery by 40% to boost retention, improving CSAT and MAU through search feed and SEO analytics enhancements, and enabling e-commerce feed completeness from 40% to 90%. Ainur pairs technical delivery with product-minded leadership: he designs admin tools, leads cross-functional launches (including a merchant panel with 20k+ MAU), and instituted documentation practices that reduced his team’s bus factor. He is also dedicated to mentoring junior engineers and reducing system coupling (for example, by moving geobase logic to backend-only), signaling a pragmatic focus on maintainability and long-term team velocity.
