Top SchoolGleb Kashkin is a Junior C/Lua developer based in Belgrade with seven years of hands-on experience building and hardening back-end systems. He contributes to the high-performance Tarantool in-memory database, fixing bugs and enhancing the Lua scripting engine, console behavior, and datetime/fio modules—work that improves developer ergonomics and runtime robustness. Trained at MIPT in computer science, he combines academic rigor with practical systems programming skills and a focus on clear error reporting.
