Yury Yantsevich is a senior software engineer with 13–15 years building high-performance, distributed systems and cloud-native services for companies like RightMedia, Yahoo!, Iron.io, and Klarna as well as several startups he helped bootstrap. He specializes in Big Data architectures that rely on concurrency, parallelism and immutability, favoring functional approaches (Clojure, ClojureScript, Erlang) alongside Go and C/C++ for low-level performance. At Klarna he contributed to core payment systems, and at Iron.io he worked on core products (IronWorker, IronMQ, IronCache) and multi-language client libraries, reflecting strong cross-language interoperability experience. He’s led engineering teams and startups—founding Efficio and serving as CTO at Nuday Games—combining hands-on implementation with architecture and process design for remote teams. Beyond web and backend engineering, he experiments with machine learning, EEG signal processing and brain–computer interfaces, signaling a pattern of applying systems thinking to research-grade problems. Based in Stockholm, he brings a pragmatic belief that good software transcends language choices, aiming for safe concurrent systems and fast, maintainable delivery.
