Summary
Seçkin Savaşçı is a Senior Software Engineer based in Stockholm with 12 years of experience designing and operating high-throughput, reliable payment and aggregation systems. Currently at Spotify and formerly a key engineer at Tink, he has driven massive scale-ups (400,000% monthly volume growth) and measurable improvements in end-to-end success rates while owning on-call, observability, and SLO practices. He blends deep distributed-systems expertise (Java, Kubernetes, gRPC, Cassandra) with hands-on operational leadership—running incident response, rotation management, and cross-functional product alignment. Comfortable in both startup-like squads and large engineering orgs, he champions documentation, mentoring, and interview/onboarding processes to raise team craftsmanship. A multidisciplinary technologist with masters-level distributed computing education, he also has a history of performance-focused infrastructure and CI/CD optimizations that quietly accelerate delivery across organizations.
