Rinat Khabibiev is a seasoned Lead Backend Developer with 12+ years building and scaling web applications, currently leading backend at Zvuk from Moscow. A Python and Docker evangelist, he combines deep backend engineering (Django, Tornado, async patterns, PostgreSQL) with hands-on DevOps and CI/CD automation to ship reliable production systems. He’s a proven team builder and mentor who trained and grew cross-functional teams, introduced Docker to production, and helped improve Django’s HTTP caching. Comfortable across languages and databases, he pairs solid software design principles and TDD with pragmatic performance tuning—often surfacing non-obvious fixes like running cron reliably inside containers. His background in both legacy system rescue and greenfield R&D makes him equally effective modernizing codebases or driving new platform work.
