Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Nikolaenko is a seasoned technology leader and hands-on CTO with 13+ years of professional experience and over 15 years coding across PHP, JavaScript, and Python. He builds and operates resilient, high-traffic systems—designing APIs, DB replication, load-balanced clusters and payment/analytics flows—while leading small engineering teams to deliver production-grade features. His background spans startups and product companies, from architecting related-posts ranking with ElasticSearch and OpenAI to creating CTA plugins, email autoresponders and custom Ghost forks for enterprise clients. Comfortable across the full stack and cloud infrastructure, he pairs practical DevOps (Docker, Terraform, DigitalOcean) with data tooling (Kafka, Spark, DuckDB) to solve large-scale problems. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic problem-solver who still writes code daily and enjoys tackling both big-iron cluster management and elegant front-end UX.
