Solution Architect & Engineer
Hi, I'm Alexander Iarko — a software architect with a passion for elegant, resilient systems. I design and deliver cloud-native solutions, mentor engineering teams, and care deeply about developer experience.
From high-level system design to hands-on implementation — here's what I bring to the table.
Designing distributed, event-driven architectures that balance scalability, reliability, and maintainability at every stage of growth.
Building and operating cloud-native systems with IaC, CI/CD, and observability baked in from day one.
Building high-performance APIs and data pipelines with a focus on correctness, observability, and developer ergonomics.
Embedding security into architecture decisions — threat modelling, identity, secrets management, and compliance-aware design.
Bridging product and engineering — shaping roadmaps, setting standards, reviewing designs, and growing engineering culture.
Integrating LLMs and ML pipelines into production systems — RAG architectures, embedding stores, and AI-powered features.
20+ years building software across industries and scales.

What keeps me curious and energised outside of work.
Cars, motorbikes, and karts — anything with an engine and a track.
Guitar is another language for me. From rock to classical — each genre says something words can't.
Pool and pyramid — precise angles, physics, and geometry all in one shot. Reading the table and thinking moves ahead is what makes it interesting.
Whether it's an interesting architecture challenge, a collaboration opportunity, or just a chat about tech — I'd love to hear from you.
