Revolut
I'm Artem, Lead Platform Engineer at Revolut, where I've spent the last five and a half years helping the company scale through some of its most intense growth phases. With 12 years in software engineering – eight of them in banking and fintech – I've developed a deep appreciation for the tension between moving fast and building things to last.My work sits at the intersection of developer experience, platform tooling, and engineering culture. I'm drawn to the hard problems that come with rapid scaling: how teams stay autonomous without siloing, how constraints can be a feature rather than a bug, and how we build systems – both technical and organisational – that get better under pressure.Outside of work, I channel that same obsession with tooling into my kitchen; there's always a new cooking gadget being trialled, optimised, or quietly retired.
