Senior🎓
Top SchoolDenis Kuzmenok is a Senior Software Engineer with nine years of professional experience and a deep background in backend architecture, database optimization and high-load Perl and Java systems. He built e-commerce CMS platforms and large-scale projects like ava.ua—designing ETL pipelines, geotargeted ad serving and search infrastructure handling millions of documents and 100+ rps. Comfortable across languages (Perl, Java, Go, D, JavaScript) and the full stack, Denis has shifted from high-performance data processing to infrastructure roles at Luxoft and now UBS while continuing active open-source work. His contributions to well-known projects like the Elementum Kodi addon and the anacrolix torrent library show practical experience in media tooling and BitTorrent protocol extensions, including proxy and HTTP enhancements. Colocated in Krakow, he combines hands-on optimization and profiling skills with project-architect responsibilities and a knack for rescuing slow queries and scaling systems.
