About me
Working on meaningful problems with others is what drives me. I'm a self-educated software engineer based in Minsk, Belarus, originally from Tajikistan. I started coding out of curiosity and never stopped — turning that passion into a career that's spanned fintech, startups, and product companies across three countries.
I'm currently the Backend Team Lead at Webbee GmbH, where I architect and lead development of scalable backend systems. Beyond the day-to-day, I enjoy thinking about system design, developer experience, and how to write software that stands the test of time.
When I'm not writing code, I'm writing about it — sharing what I learn through blog posts and open conversations with the community.
