Hi, I'm Ilya 👋

Go Backend Developer focused on distributed systems, databases, and storage.

I have production experience from two backend internships at Yandex Cloud — Managed Databases for MySQL and Postbox. I'm also a 4th-year Software Engineering student at RTU MIREA.

Experience

Yandex Cloud — Managed Databases for MySQL

Worked on mysync, a MySQL high-availability manager.

  • Fixed a failure scenario where a manager that lost quorum could keep the lock and block failover.
  • Added peer availability checks and automatic lock release on quorum loss.
  • Reproduced inter-datacenter network partitions on a 5-node cluster across 3 datacenters; the change was shipped to production.

Yandex Cloud — Postbox

Worked on Postbox, Yandex Cloud's transactional email service.

  • Implemented cursor-based pagination for Identity and Configuration Set across the service stack, from HTTP handlers to SQL queries.
  • Added optimistic concurrency control with ETags to prevent lost updates during concurrent Configuration Set changes.
  • Decoupled Identity and DNS verification through asynchronous events and fixed verification starting before DNS records had propagated.

Selected Project

Team project building an S3-compatible object storage system with relationship-based access control.

My main areas are Auth, Users, Storage, and Metadata:

  • object versioning and streaming multipart uploads;
  • asynchronous Storage ↔ Metadata workflows through Kafka with blob upload state tracking;
  • JWT authentication, Redis-based brute-force protection, and PostgreSQL persistence;
  • end-to-end tests, distributed tracing, and metrics.

Tech

Other Projects

  • in-memory-database — Redis-like key-value storage in Go with WAL-based persistence.
  • messenger-overview — microservice messenger built with Go, gRPC, Kafka, PostgreSQL, Redis, and observability tooling.
  • soull.nvim — my Neovim configuration.
