Maxim Belousov is an experienced software engineer and team leader with 14 years building backend systems, most recently founding Hitbox, a high-performance Rust caching framework and reverse proxy daemon. He blends hands-on expertise in Rust and Python ecosystems (Tokio, Actix, Tonic, Diesel; Asyncio, FastAPI, Pydantic) with practical experience designing distributed systems and databases (PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, Cassandra) and protocols like CRDT and Raft. At RAMBLER&Co he led media technology teams, making architecture and quality-first decisions while managing hiring, onboarding, and cross-functional planning. Trained in information security and cryptography, he brings a security-minded approach to system design.
