Summary
Iliya Svirsky is a Senior Software Engineer with nine years of full-stack experience building and modernizing web applications using React, Vue, Node.js/Express, Python (Tornado), and cloud services across AWS and Azure. He has shipped performant, dockerized microservices and significantly reduced page load times—once cutting a 40s load to ~3s—while implementing data extraction solutions with OpenAI and Azure. A collaborative engineer who has led small teams, onboarded international contractors, and run his own consulting firm to deliver production bill-tracking software for government users, Iliya blends hands-on coding with product-minded user research. Fluent in English, Russian, and Hebrew and based in Austin, he thrives in distributed teams and often bridges design, QA, and stakeholder feedback to iterate on real-world systems. Notably, he couples legacy modernization skills with practical GraphQL/REST integrations and large-data AWS tooling (Athena, Lambda) to solve complex export and data workflows.
