Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMartynas Mickevičius is a software engineer with 16 years of experience specializing in backend systems, build tooling and distributed systems, currently based in Vilnius and working at Argyle. He has deep expertise in the Akka ecosystem, contributing to high-profile open-source projects like akka, akka-persistence-cassandra and Alpakka Kafka, where he improved build systems, dependency management and integrations with Kafka and Cassandra. His work spans hands‑on development and DevOps—refactoring modules, integrating CI/CD and hardening SSL/TLS for gRPC—demonstrating an emphasis on reliability and operability. Earlier roles include platform and integration work at Lightbend and SEB bankas, giving him strong experience in enterprise-grade integration and performance testing. He holds a Master’s in Computer Science from Vilnius University and is comfortable shipping cross-language solutions (Java/Scala/Python) and reworking complex build infrastructures. A less obvious strength is his tendency to improve project maintainability by restructuring multi-project builds and extracting reusable modules, making long-lived open-source projects easier to evolve.
