Summary
Mikael Ahabalyants is a QA/QC and web engineering leader with a decade of experience building teams, processes, and modern web applications from prototype to production. He has moved from hands-on development (Angular, NodeJS, PHP) to technical leadership—designing architectures, CI/CD pipelines, containerized deployments and testing strategies using Docker, Kubernetes, GitLab CI, Puppeteer and Playwright. At Monitor Soft he led geo-replicated microservice design, established documentation-first practices and introduced automated testing and quality assurance at scale. Mikael’s strength is translating deep practical experience into repeatable processes: he can implement features himself but prefers to codify workflows so teams run smoothly without him. Based in Auckland, he combines a pragmatist’s focus on reliability with a designer-facing sensibility learned working with top studios. His uncommon background—from hands-on parsers and startup all-nighters to formalizing QA—gives him a rare blend of builder instincts and process craftsmanship.
