What Makes Me Different: What distinguishes me as an engineer is my unique journey through financial systems architecture combined with a relentless focus on observability and quality. While most developers build features, I build confidence - creating systems where you not only know when something breaks, but why it broke and how to fix it. My engineering approach was forged in the high-stakes environment of processing $100M+ daily financial transactions, where 99.999% uptime wasn't a goal but a requirement. This experience taught me that truly resilient systems aren't just well-architected; they're well-observed, well-tested, and well-documented. I've transformed chaotic codebases into comprehensible systems by establishing monitoring standards, comprehensive test suites, and clear documentation that empowers entire engineering teams. Where I truly excel is bridging the gap between complex technical implementations and business value. While many engineers can build impressive systems, I create sustainable architectures that solve real business problems. At a major top 4 US Financial corporation, I didn't just modernize a Rails platform; I enabled new financial products that directly increased revenue while reducing fraud by 35%. This business-focused mindset means I approach engineering challenges not just asking "how do we build this?" but "why are we building this and how will it create value?" My passion for mentorship has led me to develop a framework for growing junior engineers that has consistently helped them advance to senior roles in half the typical time. By creating structured growth plans combined with hands-on pairing sessions focused on system design principles, I've helped eight engineers dramatically accelerate their careers. I believe that building great engineers is as important as building great software - both are essential for long-term success. What truly sets me apart is my ability to transform complexity into clarity. Whether it's untangling a legacy codebase, explaining technical constraints to product teams, or documenting intricate system interactions, I excel at making the complicated understandable. This talent for simplification doesn't just make me a better engineer; it makes everyone around me more effective.

With 10+ years of Ruby on Rails expertise, I don’t just build applications—I engineer scalable, maintainable systems that solve real business problems. My journey began as a curious developer tinkering with Rails, and over the years, I’ve evolved into a problem-solver who bridges technical complexity with business value. One of my proudest achievements was optimizing multi-tenant database migrations by 75%, introducing rigorous security checks, automated code analysis, and comprehensive test coverage—ensuring reliability at scale. I’ve also turbocharged report generation by refining ActiveRecord queries and leveraging PostgreSQL optimizations, slashing load times while maintaining data integrity. Beyond coding, I thrive on efficiency and reusability. When integrating third-party APIs, I don’t just glue them together—I built my own Ruby gem to encapsulate logic, making future integrations faster and cleaner. Staying ahead of the curve is second nature: I run a weekly tech newsletter to keep my team (and myself) updated on Rails, Hotwire, and PostgreSQL advancements, ensuring we’re always leveraging the best tools. What truly sets me apart is my blend of deep technical skill and strategic thinking. I don’t just write code—I architect solutions that are secure, performant, and maintainable, while mentoring teams to raise the bar collectively. If you need a developer who ships high-quality software and elevates those around them, let’s talk. 🚀

Principal Engineer/Tech Lead/Senior Engineer

Hi 👋, my name is Sergey, nice to meet you! TL;DR: I’m a self made developer with 8+ YOE, a business oriented mindset, and a passion to find balance between “ship it fast” and “make it perfect”, as well as enough skills to consult or develop a fully functioning app or website using ruby, elixir, javascript, or whatever other language your heart desires 😉 One of my proudest achievements is that I architected a bunch of systems which are being used by thousands of people on a daily basis, which were later developed by a team I managed and mentored. It’s my pride and pleasure to create something that will be used by other people, and will make someone’s life easier. One of my main skills that distinguish me from others is the ability to analyze the software from the business perspective. Should we spend some time on technical debt? Should we ship MVP really quickly and perfect it later? Should we rewrite or hire a new developer? These are the questions that not every responsible and proactive software engineer can answer, these questions require deep understanding of client needs, as well as highly rational perception of software. Or do you just need to quickly develop a quality product and want someone responsible to help you with this? I’m your guy! I would be glad to help you architect, develop, or consult on any kind of idea or software you have on your mind, as well as maintain or add features to an existing product you have. Don’t hesitate to reach out, I’m absolutely sure I can help you!
