Maksim N is a Lead Backend Engineer based in Munich with 11 years of experience building and operating high-throughput, resilient systems across automotive, fintech, and e-commerce. He has owned mission-critical services—most notably VW’s Identity Provider serving ~5k req/sec and 30M+ users—and led cloud migrations, Terraform-led infra rewrites, and company-wide reusable modules that reduced drift and onboarding time. Equally comfortable shipping Go microservices and event-driven architectures, he has a track record of turning prototypes into production products, including an ML-powered fleet-management SaaS and a commerce marketplace carve-out. He combines hands-on DevOps improvements (e.g., streamlining build/logging for distributed networking projects) with people leadership, incident command, and pragmatic architecture decisions that speed iteration. Outside the office he races karts, hinting at a competitive, performance-oriented approach to engineering.
