Summary
Dmitriy Zolotarev is a seasoned software engineer with 10+ years of experience and a recent focus on building algorithmic cryptocurrency trading systems in Go. He has deep backend expertise—transitioning from a 9-year PHP background to four years as a Go engineer—designing architectures and microservices for high-load, distributed startups and profitable products. Dmitriy has led small engineering teams and acted as product owner to deliver middle-sized systems from MVP to production, and he’s hands-on with databases, messaging, search, and container orchestration. His trading work combines math, Go, Python and real-time systems (gRPC, Elastic, Kafka) and reflects an ability to turn quantitative strategies into deployable microservices. Based in Ukraine with a physics master’s background, he blends analytical rigor with pragmatism, often tackling both architecture and critical bug fixes himself. Notably, he moved from building high-traffic PHP platforms to creating a full algorithmic trading stack, demonstrating both legacy-system depth and modern cloud-native fluency.
