George Kesaev is a software engineer with 10 years of experience building high-scale, secure backend systems and cloud-native infrastructure, currently driving near-real-time secure data ingestion at Varonis. He has deep hands-on expertise in Python, Go, gRPC, Kubernetes and performance optimization, with a track record of substantial efficiency gains—such as a core service rewrite that cut CPU by 50% and memory by 66% while increasing throughput. His background spans cyber intelligence, IoT data pipelines, and research-driven projects, giving him a knack for turning prototypes into reliable production systems. Comfortable owning problems end-to-end, he also strengthens developer velocity and reliability through CI/CD automation and monitoring that dramatically reduced on-call noise. Based in Haifa, he pairs a research-oriented mindset from academic lab work with pragmatic engineering that balances innovation and operational resilience.
