Summary
Oleg Denisov is a Senior Backend Engineer based in Barcelona with 6–8 years of experience building high-performance, cloud-native platform and core systems. He has repeatedly redesigned and rewritten microservices to radically improve throughput and reliability—once delivering a 10x backend performance boost and another time increasing concurrent request handling by 200%. Oleg specializes in Python (FastAPI, async patterns), Kafka, Kubernetes and observability-driven improvements, and has driven testing cultures that raised coverage from zero to up to ~98% in projects. He’s pragmatic about cost and operability, cutting infrastructure costs by 30% and halving support load through better validation and notifications. Comfortable both hands-on and as a tech lead, he mentors juniors and prepares internal tools for inner-source reuse, reflecting a focus on durable, team-scalable engineering.
