Senior🎓
Top SchoolZaur Abasmirzoev is a seasoned technology executive with 12 years of experience leading engineering and product teams across media, cloud, and consumer services. Currently CEO of Web-Server, he oversees development of Angie, a high-performance, security-focused fork of Nginx, combining deep systems expertise with product leadership. Previously he scaled R&D and architecture at major Russian media and tech companies—including CTO roles at Lenta.ru and Vedomosti—driving language and platform migrations, agile transformations, and large‑scale site relaunches. He has built and reorganized teams of 50+ engineers, introduced Go as a primary backend language, and delivered resilient infrastructure for high-traffic news and SaaS products.

Based in Moscow, he pairs a practical "plans-come-together" mentality with a track record of shipping production-grade, high-throughput systems.
