Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPavel Astraukh is a Staff Software Engineer in Seattle with 11+ years building and scaling web and EHR systems, currently leading the clinician experience team at SimplePractice. He moved from early individual-contributor work—helping SimplePractice become a market-leading EHR—to technical leadership roles driving architecture, migrations (e.g., Braintree to Stripe), fraud prevention, and new product launches like MeetMonarch.com. Pavel is pragmatic about trade-offs, routinely improving system health and performance (introducing caching and SQL optimizations that cut latency by up to 90%) and resolving production-only issues. He mentors engineers, conducts technical and security reviews, and partners directly with product and customers to shape solutions. Comfortable across backend and frontend stacks with deep Ruby on Rails roots, he combines hands-on debugging with strategic system design and cross-team communication.
