Summary
Evgeny Yakimov is a Staff Engineer based in London with a decade of experience driving observability and SRE adoption across large-scale, real-time systems. He has led engineering and SRE teams at Bloomberg and now at Google, applying SLOs, distributed tracing, and meaningful client-facing metrics to improve reliability for mission-critical trading platforms.

Beyond tech leadership, he has a knack for cultural change—mentoring teams to shift processes and tooling toward measurable reliability—and once spent a month as a full-time stay-at-home dad, sharpening his incident-management (and nappy-changing) skills.
