Summary
Alexander Melnyk is a Lead Software Engineer with a decade of experience designing and delivering cloud-native web backends, primarily in Python (Django/Flask/Tornado), and deep expertise in analytics-driven systems using Postgres, InfluxDB and Elasticsearch. He has led technical teams building industrial metrics, automotive assistance, government ticketing and firmware-integrated communication systems, combining hands-on backend design with mentoring and project coordination. A pragmatic systems thinker and privacy advocate who prefers GNU/Linux and GNU Emacs, he brings low-level experience in embedded C and assembly to inform robust, risk-aware architecture decisions. Currently based in Kyiv and offering consulting through Sirin Software, he also pursues a PhD in Computer Engineering and collects typewriters—an analogue reminder of his affinity for precise, well-crafted systems.
