Ilia Tsyrulnikov is a Senior Software Engineer based in Tel-Aviv with over 6 years of experience building high-load systems and driving product and engineering transformations. He combines deep hands-on engineering—implementing patterns like Transactional Outbox to support 10k+ TPS and reducing DB load via caching—with strong product leadership, having scaled product and development orgs from dozens to scores of engineers. Ilia has a proven track record launching market-leading products (notably a loyalty processing system generating substantial recurring revenue) and improving developer experience and delivery predictability through process and tooling overhauls. Comfortable working directly with clients and sales, he bridges technical execution and business outcomes, hiring and mentoring teams along the way. Pragmatic and metrics-driven, he has repeatedly delivered measurable operational improvements (e.g., doubling developer NPS and large throughput gains) while modernizing stacks to attract talent.
