Nikita Subbotin is a Senior Software Engineer based in Amsterdam with about a decade of experience building fault-tolerant, high-throughput distributed systems across mapping, autonomous vehicles, and geodata platforms. He has led teams to productionize low-latency GNSS drivers and lidar pipelines, drove cross-company engineering improvements (40+ issues resolved), and cut data delivery and load times by multiples through pragmatic architecture and tooling. At Yandex he scaled ETL orchestration to tens of thousands of jobs, migrated large Python codebases to Python 3 with minimal disruption, and introduced monitoring that materially sped deliveries. His open-source contributions include improving the widely used antlr/grammars-v4 Python 3 grammar, reflecting deep language and parsing expertise beyond typical backend work. Strong in C++, Python, distributed storage and real-time systems, he combines hands-on engineering with team building and operational rigor.
