Senior🎓
Top SchoolAnton Sidelnikov is a founding engineer and backend specialist with 15+ years building high-throughput, resilient systems across startups and scale-ups. He has hands-on experience designing and shipping services in Node.js, Rust, Java/Kotlin and cloud-native stacks (Kubernetes, Terraform, Docker) while scaling products to multimillion-dollar daily throughput. Anton blends deep technical ownership—reworking legacy systems, performance testing and E2E frameworks—with product-driven leadership as a former CTO who launched a new betting B2B service in four months. He contributes to full-stack projects like the well-known LiveReload app, focusing on UI and application logic in addition to backend plumbing.
