Roman Kovtunenko is a Solution Architect with 11 years of hands-on experience building and scaling backend systems for startups and high-growth products from Warsaw. He specializes in architecting resilient, high-performance infrastructure and developer workflows—moving teams from prototype to multi-country, 150+ engineer operations. Deeply practical across the stack, he combines AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform and DevOps with backend expertise in Ruby, Rails, Python and real-time APIs. Roman has repeatedly modernized legacy Rails/Django platforms, led in-house geospatial and routing engines to replace vendor APIs, and delivered prediction, logistics and anti-fraud R&D features. He’s as comfortable writing client-facing APIs as he is designing monitoring, on-call and observability practices that keep systems reliable under load. A former independent consultant, he pairs rapid problem-solving with pragmatic architectural decisions that prioritize both velocity and long-term scalability.
