Oleg Taranov is a seasoned Chief Product and Technology Officer with over 20 years in IT and 15+ years architecting and scaling high-load systems across FinTech, E‑commerce, MediaTech, Crypto and MobilityTech. He blends hands-on principal engineering (Node.js/TypeScript, NestJS, Kafka, K8s) with product leadership, having built production-grade platforms from national video services and top regional banks to major marketplaces and an international crypto exchange. Oleg excels at designing microservices, CI/CD-driven delivery, and resilient multi-region infrastructures while remaining deeply technical and involved in architecture and on-call escalation. He has a proven track record of transforming teams and delivery models under pressure—rebuilding engineering orgs during crypto winter and tripling productivity through structural changes. Recently he led a full-stack mobility ecosystem with real-time fleet operations, eco-driving analytics, and integrated marketplace services, demonstrating both domain breadth and execution rigor. A cosmopolite and pragmatic builder, he combines startup agility with enterprise-grade reliability and often surfaces uncommon solutions like region-aware deployments to bypass local blocks.
