Andrey Pokhilko is an open source dev leader with 12+ years of experience building backend systems in Go and Python and championing OSS adoption in enterprises. Currently leading Komodor’s open source efforts for Kubernetes troubleshooting, he combines hands-on engineering (from HAR parsing and Jenkins performance plugins to Helm dashboards) with product-minded leadership. A longtime performance testing expert and founder-turned-executive, he has shipped and maintained projects like Taurus and contributed to notable tools such as Kubeshark and Jenkins performance-plugin. Based in Lisbon, he brings a rare blend of protocol-level analysis, test automation, and full-stack UI work, and often translates research-grade ideas into practical developer tooling. An unexpected detail: he’s integrated BLE-driven device control (LEGO PoweredUp) and test automation in Python, showing curiosity that spans from infra to hobbyist hardware.
