Summary
Andrey Zharkikh is an experienced Python developer with 9 years in industry and over 15 years in software engineering, combining deep technical craft with a Ph.D. in Engineering Sciences. He has built backends, APIs, and distributed data systems across domains—from PIM and catalog search at SberMarket to integrations, ETL and data lakes at SKOLKOVO—often owning architecture, CI/CD and DevOps work. Comfortable with the full development lifecycle, he pairs hands-on Python/DRF/Flask work and data engineering (Airflow, Kafka, PostgreSQL) with production-grade testing and deployment.
