Artem Manchenkov is a Senior Software Engineer based in London with 11 years of experience designing and shipping high-performance distributed systems across cloud and high-load web domains. He has driven measurable business outcomes—speeding order creation fourfold, doubling critical service performance, and replacing batch financial calculations with real-time event-driven updates. Skilled across Python, Go, PHP and Rust, Artem builds resilient microservices, CI/CD pipelines and observability tooling (Prometheus, OpenTelemetry) and has hands-on Azure Cloud experience from Microsoft where he led architecture, security reviews and extraction of monoliths into functions. A long-time open-source contributor and Yii2 maintainer, he routinely fixes deep framework bugs that improve data integrity and developer ergonomics. He pairs technical leadership—mentoring, interviewing and stabilizing release processes—with pragmatic engineering: shipping Kafka-based workers, reusable libraries and developer tooling that reduce boilerplate. Notably, he combines academic teaching experience with production-grade system design, giving him a rare ability to explain and scale complex systems.
