Summary
Ivan Klishch is a seasoned backend software engineer and AWS Certified Solutions Architect with 11+ years building high-throughput, data-intensive systems for companies like Datadog and JW Player. He specializes in Python-based architectures that power low-latency APIs at scale—most recently contributing to a Delivery API handling tens of thousands of requests per second and petabytes of daily traffic. Comfortable across cloud, container, and orchestration technologies (AWS, Docker, Kubernetes), he also brings hands-on experience with search, ingestion pipelines, and moving legacy systems to modern microservices. A pragmatic engineer and occasional tinkerer, he runs a Raspberry Pi Kubernetes cluster and ESP8266 home automation projects in his spare time, reflecting a deep curiosity for embedded and distributed systems. Based in New York and originally from Ukraine, he blends production-grade reliability with a continuous focus on performance and operational resilience.
