Summary
Denis Karpenko is a Senior Engineering Manager based in Warsaw with 13 years of experience leading distributed engineering teams and operating developer productivity platforms at scale. He combines hands-on JVM expertise (Java, Scala, Groovy) with practical DevOps and CI/CD know-how—having built delivery pipelines, SOA transitions, and reliable global services used across dozens of teams. At Google and previously Fitbit he focused on generalizing delivery processes, vendor relationships, and transforming team workflows to embrace continuous change.

A detail that sets him apart is his track record of moving teams from bespoke workflows to standardized, highly available services while remaining an active contributor to core engineering work.
