Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolIvan Yatskevich is a Principal Product Software Engineer with ~13 years of professional experience and nearly 20 years of hands-on software work, now based in Amsterdam and blending backend expertise with product and engineering leadership. He has led product development and platform transformations—most recently shaping VictoriaMetrics Cloud and driving migrations to React and modern CI/CD—while founding startups and co-founding developer communities like Software Craftsmanship Belarus and FuncBY. Ivan excels at making systems and teams more resilient: instituting SDLC practices, release checklists, analytics-driven UX improvements, and incident response processes that maintain velocity without sacrificing quality. His background spans Scala-based backend systems, event-driven architectures, and platform work (infrastructure, Docker, Terraform, GitLab CI), and he stays technical enough to contribute to open-source tooling such as a widely used Grunt Bower plugin. Colleagues describe him as a clarity-focused leader who reduces friction and steadily improves both technical designs and team dynamics.
