Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolEvgeny Kot is a seasoned engineering leader with nearly two decades of technical experience and over eight years in senior management, currently serving as Head of Engineering at JetBrains after transforming Rarible as VP of Engineering. He specializes in scaling teams and processes in fast-moving SaaS and blockchain environments, driving a 10x revenue increase and a 300% delivery speedup at Rarible without growing headcount. A Google Developer Expert and a master's-trained computer scientist, he combines deep technical architecture skills with hands-on product delivery across frontend, backend, and collaborative editors. His background in psychology gives him an uncommon edge in rebuilding team morale and designing resilient engineering cultures during disruptive transitions. Evgeny has a strong track record of launching offices and growing organizations (sponsoring Wrike’s Prague expansion to 120 engineers) and mentoring engineers into senior roles. Based in Lisbon, he’s equally comfortable leading technical strategy as he is shipping complex features and integrating AI-driven tooling into SDLCs.
