Senior🎓
Top SchoolIgor Ryabtsev is a Cluster Tech Lead with 10 years of experience designing and operating highly available, fault-tolerant backend systems, currently shaping architecture and delivery for Samokat’s Customer Experience cluster. He blends hands-on Kotlin/Java development (Spring, PostgreSQL, Kafka) with people and process leadership—planning quarterly roadmaps, managing technical debt, running interviews, and optimizing time-to-market across multiple teams. His background includes payment platform engineering at Yandex.Money, where he built REST microservices and even authored a Kotlin DSL for Grafana dashboards, reflecting a taste for tooling that automates observability. Comfortable across the stack, he has applied formal CS skills (algorithms, data structures, SQL optimization) to scale systems and lead migrations, and he often turns operational needs into automated solutions. Based in St. Petersburg, he combines pragmatic engineering with architectural discipline and a track record of improving both code quality and team throughput.
