Michael Elufimov is a Senior Site Reliability Engineer with 13 years of experience building and automating resilient infrastructure for high-load systems. He has led DevOps and SRE teams through large-scale migrations, observability rebuilds, and automation-driven culture shifts handling hundreds of thousands of RPM and hundreds of terabytes of data. At Pravo Tech he moved teams from manual firefighting to self-service platforms, introduced infrastructure-as-code, Vault-based secrets, and a custom code-driven alerting system, cutting night incidents dramatically. Now at Tinkoff, he continues to apply pragmatic architecture reviews and performance-focused R&D to production problems. Trained as a radio engineer, he blends rigorous systems thinking with hands-on tooling (Ansible, Kubernetes, ELK/Grafana, Proxmox) and a bias for building repeatable developer workflows. He’s known for turning complex legacy estates into automated, testable environments rather than patching with one-off fixes.
