Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNikolay Telepenin is a pragmatic software engineer with 14 years of experience building resilient backend systems, automated CI/CD pipelines, and observable platforms—currently solving hard product and operational problems at CloudLinux. He blends deep Python and Go expertise with hands-on cloud and infra skills (AWS/GCP, Kubernetes, Ansible) to reduce downtime, lower MTTR, and eliminate manual toil. Nikolay has driven production LLM initiatives—designing RAG/vector search solutions and agentic, distributed backporting workflows for KernelCare and ELS—work that includes a patent-pending approach and large-scale validation pipelines. He’s also a careful security engineer who architects patching pipelines, coordinates vulnerability remediation, and enforces auditability for LLM-driven automation. An active open-source contributor, he extended Gerrit support for an AI PR assistant and routinely improves ecosystem clients (nsq, go-nsq, python-nsq), reflecting a bias toward operational simplicity and long-term maintainability. Based in Lisbon, he pairs systems-level thinking with practical full-stack delivery, able to own features end-to-end from low-level C/Java integrations to user-facing Vue/React work.
