Seva Kaloshin is a Senior Software Engineer based in Aarhus with over a decade of experience building and operating web-scale backend systems, and seven years focused on server-side development and DevOps. He specializes in Golang and has taken multiple services from design to production, working across relational and analytical stores like PostgreSQL and ClickHouse as well as Redis and Kafka. Comfortable in cloud-native environments, he applies GitLab CI, Kubernetes, Helm, Istio and multi-cloud platforms (Azure, GCP) to deliver resilient, observable systems. His open-source contributions include enhancing the Cadence workflow engine—adding CLI features, refactoring for efficiency, and improving test coverage—highlighting a practical focus on reliability and developer ergonomics. Having progressed through senior roles at companies including Semrush, Vivid Money, IONOS and now Uber, he blends systems-level thinking with hands-on implementation in high-throughput environments. An understated strength is his knack for turning complex retry and orchestration logic into well-tested, maintainable code that scales in production.
