Summary
Aleksei Shepelev is a Java-focused software engineer and team lead with nine years of experience building and architecting backend systems, primarily using Spring Boot, complemented by hands-on React/Redux full-stack work. He has led small Agile teams at Yandex and Sberbank, driving architecture reviews, microservice design, and cross-team integration while maintaining high code quality. Aleksei combines academic rigor from an MIPT Applied Mathematics and Physics background with practical delivery—launching multiple projects on schedule and implementing complex integrations like two-phase commits. He has taught algorithms and data structures at MIPT, which sharpens his ability to formalize requirements and mentor engineers. Based in Leuven and open to relocation to Brussels or remote roles, he brings both technical leadership and clear, argumentative communication to fast-moving product teams. A lesser-known strength is his track record of building end-to-end testing frameworks and operationalizing quality across the stack.
