Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Stalin is a senior software engineer with over a decade of hands-on experience building high-scale distributed systems, currently focusing on approximate vector search and NPU-accelerated matrix operations at Huawei. He has deep networking expertise honed at Yandex.Cloud, where he implemented protocol-specific throttling, IPv6 data/control planes, and reduced packet loss during hypervisor updates. Proficient in C/C++, Go, and Python, he has worked across the full SDLC and contributed to YDB (an open-source distributed SQL database) improving stats aggregation, metrics, and robustness. His background spans infrastructure, databases (MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Cassandra), and messaging (Kafka, RabbitMQ), and includes leading a 17-person team to deliver a national-scale e-government product. Known for pragmatic problem-solving, he combines low-level systems optimization with product-minded architecture and measurable operational impact. Based in Novosibirsk, he brings a rare blend of networking depth and database internals experience that surfaces in both cloud networking and storage projects.
