Ats Nisov is a software engineer with 13 years' experience building scalable web applications, primarily with Python backends and React/JavaScript frontends, and working knowledge of Kotlin. He has deep hands-on ownership of content APIs, having led extraction, performance optimization, and type-driven refactors at Wolt during hypergrowth from 20 to 500 engineers and a €7B acquisition. Comfortable across the stack, he designs resilient services integrating MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Redis, Kafka and gRPC, and has repeatedly shipped production-ready caching, parallel IO and deployment isolation solutions. As a team lead he combines technical depth with people-first leadership—hiring, mentoring and creating psychological safety while driving measurable product experiments and A/B testing. He values engineering quality, transparency and developer happiness, and is as likely to be found improving CI/type safety as debating design trade-offs. Based in London, he brings startup grit and enterprise-scale experience, often bridging backend systems and frontend product needs.
