Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlex Ivanov is a Senior Software Engineer with 13 years of experience building and operating high-scale backend services, currently shaping platform infrastructure and critical shared services at Wolt. He combines deep JVM expertise (Java, Kotlin, Scala) with cloud-native tooling—Kubernetes, Terraform, Kafka—and a strong DevOps mindset to own systems end-to-end from architecture to on-call incident response. His work spans designing catalog and promotion systems for global retail operations to implementing in-house Kafka outbox solutions and database connectors, showing both product-focused design and low-level integration skills. Alex has repeatedly driven migrations and performance tuning (AWS->K8s, HPA tuning, SLO-driven reliability) and is comfortable in legacy-mainframe and modern cloud environments alike. Based in Helsinki, he pairs pragmatic engineering with measurable reliability improvements and a knack for turning complex operational requirements into scalable, testable systems.
