alexey-anufriev - Overview (original) (raw)

Hi, I'm a software engineer working mostly on distributed systems, backend services, and platform infrastructure.

I started programming professionally in the mid-2000s while studying information technology, building e-commerce and content websites as a freelancer. That early work meant handling everything from application code to hosting, databases, and production troubleshooting, which strongly shaped how I approach systems today.

Over the years I've worked across several different environments:

• large enterprise telecom systems with long development cycles and complex architectures
• fintech platforms built under strong market and regulatory constraints
• backend systems for online multiplayer games running under unpredictable load
• large-scale cloud platforms with many teams, services, and shared infrastructure

Today my work focuses on platform services, infrastructure, and security - building components that other teams depend on and keeping systems reliable, operable, and understandable as they grow.

Outside of work I enjoy exploring programming languages, software architecture, and how systems behave under real conditions. I also tinker with hardware, write small utilities, and collect retro PCs and game consoles.
