Top SchoolDenis Ivanov is a Principal Software Engineer with 11 years of professional experience, currently driving telemetry and distributed tracing initiatives on Azure Edge + Platform at Microsoft from Redmond. He has a strong backend systems pedigree—leading teams, rearchitecting large .NET platforms, and shipping scalable microservices and SaaS solutions across global regions while at 2GIS. Denis pairs hands-on coding (notably contributing fixes to ImageSharp’s GIF decoder) with architecture and delivery improvements that cut release cycles from months to days and introduced DDD and robust logging/telemetry practices. At Microsoft he focuses on OpenTelemetry and Telemetry Core, bringing production-grade observability to distributed systems. He’s comfortable across the stack (C#, .NET Core, Kubernetes, ELK, Kafka, Ceph/S3) and has a track record of turning legacy codebases into modular libraries and OSS projects. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic technical leader who blends deep engineering craftsmanship with measurable operational impact.
