Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolPavel Piliaev is a senior software engineer with a decade of experience designing scalable microservices and distributed systems for high-traffic products, currently driving security and AI initiatives at AWS/Amazon from Amsterdam. He has led teams up to 16 engineers and repeatedly delivered mission-critical infrastructure—launching a core services platform at SberMarket in six months and architecting event and search systems that handle tens of millions of daily requests at OZON and Avito. Equally fluent in Go, Kotlin and TypeScript, Pavel blends backend systems design with full‑stack delivery and cloud-native best practices, often bridging technical and business needs to improve user and operational outcomes. He has a track record of turning AI prototypes into production—his IDE chat prototype was showcased at AWS re:Invent and evolved into Amazon Q Developer—and currently applies LLMs to automate freight operations and document verification. Notably, his background spans both consumer marketplaces and developer tooling, giving him a rare perspective on building developer-facing products and large-scale user services.
