Senior🎓
Top SchoolMark Cheptea is an engineering manager with 11 years of experience building and leading teams that deliver cloud-native, high-throughput systems across Java/Kotlin, Node.js and LAMP stacks. Currently managing a 10-engineer team at Tenderwell, he architected and launched one of the largest procurement data aggregators and previously led design of microservices and CI/CD for high-frequency trading platforms. He pairs hands-on development skills (Kotlin, Java, PHP, Springboot, Ktor, RxJava) with strong operational experience in Jenkins, Docker, Galera/MariaDB and search technologies like Elasticsearch and Sphinx. A practitioner of Agile/Scrum and RUP, he has a track record of decomposing monoliths into interoperable APIs and introducing engineering best practices like GitFlow and code review. Based in Madrid, he blends technical depth with client-facing planning and negotiation, often designing bespoke solutions for parallel and concurrent data streams. Unusually for a manager, he still contributes code and system designs, reflecting a preference for pragmatic, measurable engineering outcomes.
