Jürgen Kozyrev is a fintech-focused IT director with 11 years of hands-on engineering and leadership experience, currently leading IT at Binale from Berlin. He combines deep expertise in real-time client apps, distributed systems, cloud platforms (GCP/AWS) and cybersecurity with a track record of shipping high-throughput microservices in Go and modern frontends in React/TypeScript. Previously he scaled delivery and velocity at travel audience and Klarna, driving practices like TDD, specs-first development, and CI that raised test coverage to 80% and delivery cadence substantially. Jürgen moved legacy monoliths to API-first, gRPC/Protobuf architectures and has experience designing data schemas for systems handling millions of records. He’s as comfortable mentoring and building inclusive, high-performing teams as he is refactoring low-level system performance bottlenecks, and often pairs architectural vision with hands-on coding. Trained as an electrical engineer, he brings a systems-thinking approach to fintech product and infrastructure challenges.
