Mike Mulev is an engineering leader based in Amsterdam with over a decade of experience building and scaling web platforms, product teams, and developer tooling. He combines hands-on software engineering (8+ years) with people leadership, having hired and coached multiple engineering managers and formed three full product teams at Booking.com focused on Web Platform Engineering and Experience Measurement. He co-owns product and technical strategy, led a foundational frontend ecosystem rework that improved autonomy and reduced operational costs across 50+ teams, and has driven cross–business-unit alignment for strategic initiatives. Earlier roles span backend and API work, high-throughput services, and a CTO/co-founder stint where he grew a digital marketing product to €2.5M ARR and built a durable engineering culture. Mike is pragmatic about delivery and architecture, equally comfortable in code, on-call responsibility, and shaping multi-year roadmaps. Outside the obvious metrics, he has a consistent track record of improving team processes (introducing GitHub Flow, code review practices) that materially reduced incidents and raised engineering effectiveness.
