Summary
Alexey Stepanov is an AI Delivery Lead and backend engineer with a decade of experience designing and shipping resilient, high-throughput systems across FinTech, banking, e‑commerce and startups. He combines deep hands‑on expertise in Java/Kotlin, Spring, PostgreSQL, Kafka and Kubernetes with a track record of architecture refactors that materially improved performance and reduced operational costs. At PashaPay he led end‑to‑end AI integration, cut cycle times by up to 30%, and built an AI Gateway and agentic workflows that automate routine tasks. A practiced mentor and educator, he has built internal training programs that rapidly advanced juniors to mid levels and regularly runs workshops on specification‑driven and behavior‑driven development. He’s comfortable both founding systems from scratch and optimizing existing platforms (e.g., 2.5x write load improvement on high‑load Postgres clusters), and brings an uncommon blend of delivery discipline, teaching ability, and product‑oriented engineering to teams.
