Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMihai Stancu is a seasoned CTO and software craftsman with 11 years of experience building high-performance, maintainable architectures and leading engineering organizations from Bucharest. He has led large teams and scaled delivery at companies like YAROOMS, Neurony and eMAG, driving measurable cost reductions through software and hardware integrations and building services that handle thousands of requests per second with millisecond latencies. A pragmatic agile advocate, he focuses on developer productivity—introducing OPS automation, self-service tooling, static code quality gates and security checks (SAST/DAST/WAF). Mihai blends deep hands-on engineering across PHP, Node.js, Go and cloud tooling with people development, having hired and mentored dozens of engineers into leadership roles. He’s as comfortable refactoring tens of thousands of lines of legacy code as he is designing 10ms microservices and observability-driven operations. Colleagues describe him as a results-oriented leader who prioritizes long-term maintainability over quick fixes.
