Summary
Yaroslav Romanov is a Lead Software Engineer with 14 years of experience building secure, scalable backend systems and leading cross-functional teams from Novi Sad, Serbia. He has a strong track record at major Russian tech firms—driving single-sign on, two-factor auth, anti-fraud and global order processing initiatives—and now leads engineering at Yandex Cloud. As an engineering manager at OZON he hired and grew a team of 10, instituted agile practices, and launched company-wide platforms for role management and secure personal data storage that were adopted across 30+ teams. Technically fluent in Go and C++, he mentors engineers (including at company courses) and has repeatedly delivered reliability and performance wins such as rate-limiting, SSO fixes for ITP, and dev-environment automation. Collected experience in authentication, privacy-preserving data exchange, and cross-domain integrations gives him a practical edge in designing systems that balance security, usability and operational simplicity. He pairs rigorous engineering (Bauman MSTU graduate) with hands-on leadership that turns complex security and integration challenges into production-ready services.
