Nikolai Rubtsov is a Senior Software Engineer with seven years of backend-focused experience and five years concentrated in fintech, currently building the Revolut X Crypto Exchange from Lisbon. He has a proven track record designing data-intensive services and integrations—everything from cash-flow metric pipelines and trade streaming to treasury and portfolio systems—using PostgreSQL, jOOQ-based libraries, Spark, Airflow and data lake architectures. Prior roles at Yandex and Vigo show deep platform and infrastructure expertise: runtime code generation for DB mappers, migration tooling, orchestration services, and a high-performance ClickHouse ORM that sped reads by an order of magnitude. Comfortable across the JVM ecosystem (Kotlin/Java), he also brought Kotlin into teams and implemented low-level networking and DB features earlier in his career. Nikolai blends practical fintech domain knowledge with hands-on systems optimization, often building internal libraries and tooling that lift whole teams rather than just individual services.
