Summary
Stefan Slaveykov is a pragmatic software engineer and team lead with 12 years building scalable payment systems, distributed services and APIs across startups and large enterprises. He’s technology-agnostic but has deep hands-on experience with Ruby, Elixir, JavaScript/TypeScript, MongoDB/DynamoDB, Kafka and AWS serverless stacks, and has led migrations, CI/CD initiatives and Elasticsearch re-architectures at scale. Stefan excels at payment gateways and complex integrations (including an iso8583/EBCDIC bank integration) and enjoys tackling architectural challenges without burning the midnight oil. He’s contributed to open source for years, values reusable shared libraries, and prefers picking the right AWS services by knowing which ones not to use. Based in Wellington, NZ, he blends practical infrastructure skills (Terraform, CDK, Serverless) with a preference for well-designed, maintainable systems.
