Backend engineering focus
Practical backend work across services, data flows, migration paths, performance, reliability, and production support.
Backend services
Build and maintain production backend services in .NET, Go, SQL, Kafka, PostgreSQL, and Azure.
Performance and reliability
Improve throughput, reduce production errors, tune consumers, and verify stability with operational metrics.
Data and migrations
Refactor database procedures, support higher ingestion rates, and deliver cloud migrations without user disruption.
Legacy modernization
Work inside existing systems, improve API contracts, automate migration checks, and reduce manual error.
Team delivery
Collaborate with product, QA, operations, and engineering teams to land backend changes clearly and reliably.
High-volume event processing
Removed bottlenecks and improved Kafka consumer performance in multi-region production pipelines.
Adform .NET and Kafka stabilization across multi-region pipelines handling millions of events per hour.
Smart-meter data ingestion
Refactored PostgreSQL procedures to support higher write-load and more frequent ingestion.
Ignitis smart-meter cadence moved from 15 minutes to 5 minutes with no stability regression.
Azure platform migration
Led backend migration work for a large data-entry platform.
Euromonitor Azure migration delivered zero downtime and ~50% faster reporting queries.
Migration automation
Built a .NET CLI for automated breaking-change detection in Dynamics migrations.
Simplanova Dynamics CLI cut manual audit time by ~80%.
Core backend strengths
- .NET and C# backend development for production systems.
- Go services, concurrency, testing, and Dockerized prototypes.
- Kafka event streaming, consumer tuning, and high-volume data paths.
- PostgreSQL, SQL performance, Azure migrations, observability, and reliability work.
Primary target
Full-time Senior Backend Engineer role on a backend, platform, data, or infrastructure-adjacent team that owns production systems.
Availability: Ready to start within 2–4 weeks.
Location: Kaunas preferred on-site; remote from EU-compatible time zones is possible.
Best fit: teams using .NET, Go, Kafka, PostgreSQL, SQL, Azure, or similar backend stacks.
Role fit
The default fit is a standard full-time backend engineering role with clear production ownership.
Senior Backend Engineer
Backend service development, production support, performance work, and reliable delivery.
Best match for standard HR and recruiter screening.
Platform-adjacent backend
Data paths, internal tooling, API contracts, migrations, observability, and operational workflows.
Best when backend work is close to reliability, data, and deployment concerns.
Performance and reliability
Bottleneck removal, alert reduction, query optimization, and event-pipeline improvements.
Best when the team needs measurable production improvements.
Backend modernization
Legacy code improvement, migration automation, cloud migration, and safer data-flow changes.
Best when existing systems need steady improvement without a rewrite.
