Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMax Lapshin is a seasoned founder and engineer with 17 years building high-performance video streaming infrastructure, currently serving as Board Member at Otter Video and Founder/CTO of Flussonic. He architected Erlyvideo from scratch into one of the few global solutions able to stream RTMP/RTSP/HLS/HDS/MPEG-TS to thousands of clients while running on minimal resources, a sign of deep systems-level efficiency. Max combines hands-on development, productization (licensing, support, deployment), and scaling expertise—previous roles include scaling high-traffic Rails sites and technical leadership at media and consumer platforms. Based in Moscow with a formal background in mathematics and computer science from MSU, he repeatedly turns constrained infrastructure problems into robust, low-footprint production systems. Beyond obvious leadership, he brings a rare knack for squeezing maximum concurrency and reliability out of single-core deployments, making his teams and products resilient at scale.
