Summary
Yaroslav Ravlinko is a senior systems architect with over a decade of hands-on experience designing cloud-native data platforms, payment processing systems, and ML infrastructure for enterprise clients. He has led practice-building efforts and platform engineering at firms like EPAM, Intellias, Grid Dynamics and SoftServe, blending TOGAF-informed enterprise architecture with pragmatic DevOps and SRE practices. Recent work includes RAG/LLM-driven chatbots and Modern Data Infrastructure built on AWS, Azure/Databricks, Apache Flink and stateful functions, as well as an Open Banking Engine and a prototype payment platform. Known for turning complex, SLA-bound systems into operationally reliable solutions, he combines consultancy, workshops and assessments to remove delivery bottlenecks and improve performance. Based in Krakow, he pairs deep technical craft with a contrarian streak—self-described as a “glorified janitor” who questions authority while coordinating engineering efforts.
