Senior🎓
Top SchoolNikita Romashkin is a senior software engineer and hands-on engineering leader with 16 years of experience, currently building a high-performance exchange at Bitvavo. He spent the last decade focused on financial services—most recently leading and architecting the backend for the Stryk trading app at BUX—owning day-to-day delivery, stability, performance and security since 2018. Deeply pragmatic, he writes production Java/Kotlin microservices daily and has migrated complex systems to GCP, modernized CI/CD pipelines, and replatformed stateful clusters including Cassandra, Elasticsearch and Percona. His background spans data engineering and ad tech, where he engineered real-time stream pipelines handling up to 500k messages/sec and decision engines for low-latency marketing. Equally comfortable in infrastructure as code (Terraform/Ansible), Kubernetes/GKE and messaging systems (RabbitMQ, Kafka, Aeron), he pairs systems-level thinking with active mentoring and knowledge sharing. Based in Amsterdam with an MS in Mathematics and Computer Science, he brings a rare blend of production coding discipline and architecture-level ownership.
