Maksim Averin is a seasoned backend engineer and founder with a decade of experience building high-throughput services, leading small teams, and launching two startups including a marketplace analytics platform with 15k+ MAU. Comfortable in Python and Go, he architects microservices and data pipelines using Postgres, ClickHouse, Redis, Elasticsearch, Kafka, and modern cloud tooling (K8s, AWS/GCP, Helm).
