Top SchoolAurimas Baubkus is a seasoned tech lead and hands-on developer with 15 years of experience building scalable, secure web applications and microservices from Vilnius, Lithuania. He has led engineering teams and cross-functional operations at companies like PokerNews and Oddschecker Global Media, driving migrations from monoliths to microservices, establishing Agile practices, and combining architecture with day-to-day coding. As a co-founder of NebijokIT and a former Head of Engineering, he pairs entrepreneurial initiative with people leadership—regularly mentoring team leads, running 1:1s, and shaping tech culture and budgets. Comfortable across the stack, Aurimas emphasizes TDD/BDD, DevOps, and service-oriented architecture, and often steps into interim operational roles (TechOps, BI, EntIT) to remove blockers and stabilize delivery. Notably, he started as a developer and architect on LAMP stacks and APIs, which gives him pragmatic insight into integrations and system bottlenecks that still informs his technical decisions today.
