Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolYevhenii Tkachenko is a Staff Software Engineer based in Kitchener with 12+ years building high-throughput, low-latency distributed systems and scalable microservices. He has led end-to-end backend work that took a GraphQL monolith from zero to 5 million MAUs and built infrastructure-as-code pipelines deployed daily with Terraform, Terragrunt, and GitHub Actions. Previously he drove core VoIP and telemetry improvements at TextNow and designed fault-tolerant, highly concurrent services at Pluto TV that supported tens of millions of users while boosting retention through targeted features. A pragmatic TDD/BDD practitioner, he emphasizes test coverage and reliability while enabling a small engineering team to move quickly. Outside product work he contributes to game-server open source (AzerothCore), focusing on core logic fixes for spells, flight and loot systems—an indication of both attention to detail and a willingness to dig into legacy C++ codebases.
