Kirill Saksin is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience specializing in Scala and JVM ecosystems, currently building telephony analytics at JettyCloud. He has led core teams and played a key role in architecting and splitting large B2B payment monoliths at Tinkoff, designing resilient APIs, distributed transactions and high-throughput services using Kafka, PostgreSQL, Kubernetes and Istio. Comfortable across Kotlin, Java, Haskell and low-level C/C++, Kirill combines deep Linux expertise (five years on NixOS, prior Gentoo) with hands-on ops work—assembling servers, configuring nginx, DNS and Kubernetes deployments. He’s an avid tinkerer who turns side projects into production-grade tools (ffmpeg-based media manager compiled to static Scala binaries, a Lua WM wrapper in TypeScript) and has built large-scale home infrastructure like a 40TB ZFS RAID10 media server. Known for strong bug-hunting intuition and pragmatic architecture, he delivers robust, well-documented libraries and CI/CD practices for teams and platforms.
