ALEKSANDR GUSKOV
Senior engineer with 17+ years of experience, from research software at national university to leading development of commercial platforms at BIZOO.DEV

I design and build systems that handle real scale: e-commerce platforms processing 500M+ database records, CRMs serving 2,000+ users, multi-tenant SaaS products, and native iOS/macOS apps in Swift. Recent focus: AI/LLM integrations in production, with automation replacing up to 90% of manual operations.

WHAT I BRING
- Deep backend expertise (PHP/Laravel, Elasticsearch, Kafka, MySQL sharding) with hands-on frontend and mobile skills
- Architecture-first thinking: performance optimization, clean code, event-driven design
- Engineering discipline: testing, CI/CD, code review, observability
- Team work with international clients since 2009 (Netherlands, France, Albania, EU)
