Monika Machunik is a Senior Software Engineer based in Munich with 11+ years of experience building robust Java and Kotlin backends for cloud-native web applications. She has blended hands-on engineering and people leadership at Scalable Capital—transitioning from senior developer to engineering manager and back to senior engineer while driving broker platform features, AWS serverless greenfield work, and operational improvements. Comfortable across Java EE, Spring, and backend services, she focuses on clean, testable code and pragmatic architecture that balance performance and maintainability. Her background spans fintech integrations (trading venues, AML screening, tax document processing) to full-stack classifieds systems and microservice libraries at SAP Hybris, reflecting both domain depth and system-level thinking. A lifelong tinkerer who codes hobby projects in JavaScript and other languages, she treats programming as a creative, detail-oriented craft with an eye for rooting out problem causes rather than just treating symptoms.
