Svetlana Perekrestova is a backend software engineer with 8 years of experience building scalable, high-availability systems for fintech, communications, and large-scale consumer platforms. She has a strong Java/Kotlin/Go background and a track record of impactful engineering: migrating monoliths to microservices, cutting message processing times via Kafka, and reducing audio generation latency from 6700 ms to 530 ms by architecting a voice streaming service. Her work spans R&D for AI-powered banking platforms to improving chat reliability and CI/CD speed at enterprise scale, demonstrating both deep technical execution and cross-team coordination. Based in Amsterdam, she combines rigorous performance tuning (JProfiler, JMeter) with product-minded architecture and a knack for turning operational pain points into measurable improvements. An unusual strength is her bilingual education and language training background, which helps her communicate complex technical ideas clearly across international teams.
