Vladislav Klimenko is a Quality Engineer with a decade of experience blending nuclear project quality management and software testing, currently testing software at Yandex while leading quality assurance for the Rooppur NPP construction site. He has driven QMS implementation and certification (ISO 9001, IPMA Delta) across major nuclear projects (Hanhikivi-1, Paks-2) and managed supplier audits, documentation control, and licensing deliverables. Equally comfortable in technical and operational roles, he contributes to open-source backend/DevOps efforts—notably improvements to Altinity’s ClickHouse Kubernetes operator and the Timescale time-series benchmark suite—bringing practical automation and deployment expertise. Trained as a nuclear engineer (MEPhI) with a strong foundation in quality control, he combines regulatory rigor with hands-on software and DevOps problem solving, often bridging gaps between project management, auditors, and engineering teams.
