Anton Onyshchenko is a senior software engineer based in Berlin with 14 years of experience building production-grade systems end-to-end, with a backend specialty across Kotlin/JVM, Scala and PostgreSQL. He thrives in small, high-ownership teams and has repeatedly taken prototypes to production—most recently architecting a real-time trading terminal processing ~1000 blockchain events/sec as a founding engineer. Comfortable across the full stack (TypeScript/React front-ends to AWS infrastructure), he favors pragmatic engineering over ideology to deliver measurable business value. His background includes identity and access services at scale, price-oracle and custody systems for crypto, and a track record of launching customer-facing features quickly. An active contributor to core libraries (notably deep refactors and API work on the ZIO project), he understands concurrency and error-handling at a library level as well as in distributed services. He pairs hands-on coding with product sensibility, often shipping first releases within months in resource-constrained teams.
