Summary
Vitalii Maklai is a Senior Backend Developer based in Mississauga, Ontario with over 20 years of hands-on software design experience and 12 years in professional roles building enterprise systems. He has deep expertise in C#, .NET (including .NET Core/5), multi-threading, WebAPI and backend architecture, and has transitioned into DevOps-driven delivery—designing CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code and automation tooling. His career spans embedded warehouse and ERP systems to large-scale device management and DevOps platforms, reflecting a knack for turning legacy codebases into maintainable, testable systems. At SOTI he focused on developer-centric tooling and pipelines (GoCD/Jenkins, PowerShell, Chef, CloudFormation) while remaining primarily a software developer rather than an operations-only engineer. Currently at nowsite he continues to deliver backend systems informed by both deep language-level knowledge and practical infrastructure experience. He holds a Master’s in Computer Science and a Bachelor in Electronic Devices from Kyiv Polytechnic, which contributes to his strong systems-level perspective.
