Nikita Svesnikov is a technical founder and seasoned full-stack engineer with over a decade of experience building and scaling web platforms, currently leading Kumite Technology to modernize martial arts tournament management. He combines hands-on architecture and implementation—React/Relay frontends, TypeGraphQL middle-ends, and gRPC/TypeORM-backed services—with product and team leadership, having hired, onboarded and mentored engineering teams. Nikita has driven major migrations (Backbone→React, PHP→Node/GraphQL) and launched an MVP into a production-grade product that served real users and partners. He has led front-end strategy at companies like 1stdibs and Resonance, introducing microfrontends and CI/CD practices across Bamboo/Bitbucket/Azure. Known for shipping the highest-priority features across the stack, he pairs rigorous engineering practices (unit tests, reviews, design docs) with a pragmatic, data-informed approach to UX and performance. Based in Lithuania, he brings entrepreneurial grit, deep API and database experience, and a knack for translating tournament operator feedback into usable, scalable features.
