Senior🎓
Top SchoolOleksii Chekulaiev is a Senior Staff Software Engineer with 12 years of experience building resilient, business-goals-oriented systems, platforms, and workflows. He combines big-picture architecture with hands-on delivery—from SRE work at LinkedIn managing thousands of MySQL databases and on-call incident response to leading large Drupal migrations and cloud platform designs at EPAM. Practical perfectionism drives his focus on what matters: SLAs/SLOs, observability, automation, and cost-efficient cloud hosting across Azure and GCP. He’s both a solutions architect and a builder, having led high-impact site migrations for global brands and contributed to the Docksal open-source project to streamline developer environments. Comfortable across stacks (Python, Bash, Docker, Kubernetes, MySQL, JavaScript/C++), he also maintains custom forks of tooling when production needs demand it. Based in the Jacksonville metro area, he pairs disciplined engineering processes with clear, approachable communication to make complex systems operable.
