Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAleksey Konovkin is a Principal Specialist and team lead with 9+ years of experience designing and delivering high-load, low-latency telecom and API gateway systems. He architects and implements production-grade solutions—Nginx with custom C modules and OpenResty/Lua, Redis/Couchbase caching, ZooKeeper service discovery—having run a dynamically configurable API Gateway in Megafon since 2020. His background spans deep systems work in C/C++ across Unix and proprietary platforms, including lock-free data structures, allocator tracing and porting tcmalloc, and horizontally scalable balance-storage services. Aleksey combines hands-on performance optimization and stress testing with operational automation like on-the-fly Nginx reconfiguration and active health checks. He’s comfortable across the stack from kernel-level concurrency primitives to distributed caching frameworks and SSO/UMA2 integrations, and has a proven track record of turning demanding telecom requirements into robust, maintainable systems. Based in Saint Petersburg, he pairs long-term telecom domain expertise with a practical openness to scripting and integration technologies that keep large clusters resilient in production.
