Mikhail Khorpiakov is a seasoned software engineer with 11+ years of professional experience and a coding pedigree that began on a Soviet ZX Spectrum clone. He combines full‑stack development, cloud-native engineering (AWS, GCP, Vercel, Cloudflare) and extensive backend optimization across languages from PHP and JavaScript to Go and Python, with recent focus on applying LLMs to real business problems. Mikhail has driven major platform improvements—reducing incidents by an order of magnitude, migrating 10M files from EFS to S3 with zero downtime, and enabling near‑instant search—while championing testing, observability and modern AI tooling. Comfortable moving between hands‑on implementation and architectural leadership, he has built high‑load systems, OLAP/ETL pipelines and SaaS developer experiences (Monaco/VS Code integrations). Based in Tallinn, he brings a pragmatic performance-first mindset and a rare combination of legacy systems expertise and cutting‑edge LLM/cloud practice.
