Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolVadim Shalamov is a technology leader and CTO based in Montreal with over a decade of experience designing and operating high-load, multi-regional systems. He has led full lifecycle development and architectural transitions at WorkAxle, moving monoliths to microservices, introducing gRPC, RabbitMQ with protobuf, Temporal workflows, and service mesh patterns to support tens of thousands of concurrent users. Comfortable across stacks (Elixir/Phoenix, Ruby on Rails, Node/NestJS, Python) and infrastructure tools (Terraform, Kubernetes, AWS IaC), he combines hands-on engineering with process and platform improvements that speed delivery—such as templated microservices and branch-to-dev deployment flows. Vadim also has significant data-platform experience (Hadoop, Spark, NiFi, Hive, JanusGraph) and a background in building denormalization and analytics systems for high throughput. He emphasizes practical resilience: rolling dependency upgrades, zero-downtime strategies, and established design-review practices for complex work.
