Elena Vilimaite is a Lead Software Engineer based in London with a decade of experience modernising legacy systems and delivering production-grade, test-driven solutions across public sector and fintech projects. She has repeatedly led cross-functional teams to rebuild and integrate complex payment and identity platforms, shipping integrations with providers like Adyen, Braintree, Riskified and ForgeRock while championing maintainable, reusable code. Comfortable across TypeScript, Python, Node, Next/Nest, and cloud-native tooling, she combines hands-on implementation with coaching to raise engineering standards and align delivery to user value. Her background spans startups to consultancy engagements (Made Tech, Crosstide) where she also focused on data pipelines and tooling using Dagster and Postgres/NATS. Notably, she pairs pragmatic engineering with UX empathy developed from early product-facing roles, making her as effective in technical leadership as in translating user needs into robust systems.
