Andrei Simonov is a Senior Software Development Engineer based in Prague with eight years of professional experience building backend web services. He specializes in Go, Node.js and PostgreSQL, applying pragmatic engineering to production systems at SEMrush since 2015. His background includes leading development teams and hands-on PHP work earlier in his career, giving him a strong full-stack foundation and operational perspective.

Outside of work he recharges by snowboarding and traveling across Europe, which he says helps him return with fresh ideas for system design.
