Ivan Shcherbak is a seasoned Director of Engineering with 11+ years in leadership roles and over 20 years in web development, specializing in building and scaling high-load, distributed web platforms from MVP to multi-region production. He combines hands-on backend architecture skills—API-first design, distributed databases, caching, queues and background processing—with operational ownership for capacity planning, multi-datacenter migrations, monitoring and incident response. At Mobizon he led product launches across multiple countries, designed a deployable multi-market architecture, ran datacenter migrations with minimal downtime, and introduced Zabbix-based monitoring of custom business metrics and 24/7 alerting. He stays technical while driving system-wide decisions, mentoring teams, and translating business requirements into sustainable, operable solutions. Not obvious from titles alone: he repeatedly delivered pragmatic tooling (CI/CD, staging polylines, deployment checklists) and small product add-ons—like URL shorteners and form builders—that materially increased the SMS platform’s market value. Based in Ukraine, he brings deep telecom-domain experience and a track record of improving reliability, throughput and long-term architectural health.
