Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolRoman Gorodyshcher is a Principal Software Engineer based in Berlin with 14 years of experience building and operating high-throughput, customer-facing systems across Scaleups and hyperscalers. He brings deep JVM expertise—Scala (Lightbend, Akka, ZIO), Java (Spring/Dropwizard), Kafka and JVM troubleshooting—combined with hands-on AWS, MongoDB and MySQL proficiency. At Twilio he scaled wireless and SIM platforms; at Amazon he modernized review-solicitation workflows that reach millions daily, and earlier roles show a pattern of introducing robust delivery practices (Docker CI/CD, auto-generated APIs) and fault-recovery mechanisms. He’s comfortable leading small teams, clarifying cross-site designs, and turning operational pain points into durable platform features. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic architecture decisions that balance throughput, observability and recoverability.
