Hey, I'm Nikita

QA Backend Tech Lead · Go Engineer

6 years in fintech · quality strategy + production code

🟢 Open to backend quality & engineering roles. Remote

I set up QA from scratch on a fintech platform, then crossed over to writing the backend — and kept both skill sets. Six years across investments, origination/KYC, payments, and order management. Working both sides taught me where these systems break and how to keep them from breaking.

Production Go lives in my employer's private repos; the public Go here is practice and coursework. The test frameworks below are the part of my work I can show.

CV

Tech Stack

Backend: Go, gRPC, REST, Kafka, Camunda

Data: PostgreSQL, MongoDB
