Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolEugene Nemchenko is a Senior Software Engineer based in London with 11 years of experience building low-latency systems, compilers, and distributed backends. With an MSc from ITMO University, he has deep expertise in C++, assembler and Python, having contributed core features to the open-source KPHP PHP compiler and optimized market-data feed handlers down to sub-microsecond improvements. His background spans building production hedgers, microprice servers, and a zoom-like native app with 10M+ downloads, demonstrating comfort across systems, real-time networking, and cross-platform delivery. Eugene also has a track record of mentoring, speaking, and teaching C++ at university level, and is adept at shipping complex features end-to-end—from compiler internals and build systems to multi-service backends integrated with Kafka. Notably, he consolidated eight years of historical tick data into massive unified datasets and implemented critical build and debug options in compiler toolchains, reflecting a rare mix of systems-level rigor and product-focused execution.
