Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolKirill Yukhin is a seasoned technology leader and CTO with 11 years of professional experience building compilers, DBMS internals, and virtual platforms, currently leading Wheely’s engineering direction from London. He spent over a decade driving core Tarantool development—implementing SQL features, fixing complex query-planning and constraint bugs, and optimizing index and NULL-handling behavior in a widely used in-memory DBMS. Prior roles at Intel and Virtustream sharpened his expertise in compiler toolchains, virtual platforms, and storage APIs, while he also teaches an optimizing compilers course at MIPT. Comfortable moving between hands-on systems coding and executive strategy, he blends deep formal knowledge (specialist degree in cybernetics) with practical product shipping. A less obvious strength is his history of starting in real-time simulation and compiler verification, which gives him a rare systems-level view from hardware modeling to high-level SQL behavior.
