Lev Nemirovskii

With 15 years in IT, I have progressed from a web developer to CTO. I specialize in managing cross-functional teams, development, analytics, DevOps, and architecture. I have launched high-load projects from scratch with 20k+ RPS. In my free time, I teach at HSE, speak at IT conferences, write articles, and mentor. My passion for travel, motorcycles, and music complements my technical activities, helping me maintain a creative approach to solving complex problems.
