Mikhail Tokarev — CTO

Software Engineering Leader with 20+ years of experience building and scaling B2B SaaS products and engineering teams in high-growth environments. Deeply hands-on in cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, distributed systems, performance optimization, product analytics, and FinOps. I translate ambiguous product and business requirements into scalable technical architectures, improving system reliability and enabling engineering teams to move faster with confidence. Core technical competencies: - Cloud: AWS, GCP, Cloudflare. - Databases & systems: MongoDB, PostgreSQL, ETL/ELT, DWH. - Languages & frameworks: Python (async), JavaScript, Node.js, React. - DevOps: Docker, CI/CD, Ansible, Grafana, Prometheus. I understand how B2B SaaS products grow in practice - not just in theory. I work closely with product, growth, and customer success to ensure we're building things that benefit both users and the business. I lead through clarity and trust, not titles. I mentor engineers, review code, and help raise the bar for both technical quality and team performance. Selected achievements: - Scaled product revenue from $0 to $3M ARR, building a sustainably growing, profitable business. - Built and lead international remote-first teams of up to 12 ICs with 0% regretted attrition. I'm open to leadership and high-impact hands-on roles in scale-ups and growing companies, especially in the DevOps, dev tooling, and productivity space. Let’s connect 🚀
