Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolIrina Stefanova is a Full Stack Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building end-to-end systems using Clojure/ClojureScript, React, AWS, Terraform, Docker, Datomic/Datalog and SQL. She combines hands-on implementation—migrating large projects from TypeScript to Clojure, designing schedulers and task runners on GCP, and building robust SSO and access-control systems—with pragmatic DevOps work that cut AWS costs and improved deploy/test workflows. As an engineering manager and founder she has hired and mentored Clojure teams, introduced remote REPLs and processes that made hard-to-debug systems maintainable, and led architectural rewrites that reduced failure rates dramatically. She repeatedly turns complex business logic (e.g., queue deduplication, DAG execution) into reliable services using functional paradigms and streaming technologies like KStreams and XTDB. Based in Sofia, Bulgaria, Irina favors practical, production-first solutions and has a knack for shipping tooling that makes teams more productive (for example developer mocks for local testing of cloud functions). Her track record blends product-focused engineering, cost-aware infrastructure work, and a deep commitment to Clojure-driven architecture.
