Senior Systems Architect & Full‑Stack Rust Engineer
I design high‑performance, mission‑critical, and memory‑safe systems in FinTech and DefenseTech — from async backends and secure storage to WASM frontends and offline‑first products.
🟢 Open to Work — Senior/Staff Rust Engineer, Systems Architect (Remote / Ukraine / Worldwide)
-
Systems Architecture
- Event‑driven Rust backends, modular workspaces
- Clear / Hexagonal / DDD / Vertical Slice designs
- Async runtime orchestration (Tokio), profiling, tuning
- Observability: structured logging, tracing, self‑healing flows
-
Backend & Distributed Systems
- Low‑latency APIs: Axum, Hyper, Tower, Postcard, Tonic/gRPC
- Runtime tuning: worker orchestration, stack sizing, resource isolation
- Storage engines & sandboxed filesystems
- Crypto flows for offline / air‑gapped environments
-
Full‑Stack Rust / WASM
- Rust‑first architecture with shared types (backend ↔ WASM)
- Dioxus + Tailwind UIs, WASM‑oriented design
- Tight coupling between domain model and UI flows
- Languages: Rust (primary), C#, C/C++, SQL (PL/SQL, T‑SQL, SurQL)
- Backend: Axum, Hyper, Tower, Tower‑HTTP, Tokio, Rayon, Wasmtime, Tonic (gRPC), AMQP (RabbitMQ), Kafka
- Frontend / WASM: Dioxus, Tailwind CSS, Angular 2
- Data & Storage: SurrealDB, PostgreSQL, Oracle, MSSQL, RocksDB, Redis, custom sharded/compressed storage
- Infra & Systems: Linux systems programming, Docker, LLVM, CMake, tracing & logging, CI‑friendly Rust monorepos
Beyond the "Software Zoo": Rethinking Enterprise Architecture with Rust and WASM. I’m excited to share a project I’ve been architecting: Nexus — The Organizational Kernel. Modern organizations often struggle with a "software zoo" - fragmented applications that duplicate data, security logic, and infrastructure. Nexus solves this by acting as a Modular PaaS, providing a centralized, "Fortress-First" environment for business logic.
Technical Highlights:
- Hybrid Runtime: Seamlessly orchestrating ultra-lightweight WASI P2 WebAssembly components alongside classic containerized microservices.
- Intelligent Gateway: A high-throughput Rust (Axum) entry point that handles DPoP validation and context enrichment
- Unified State: Leveraging SurrealDB for graph-based, hierarchical RBAC and immutable auditing.
- DX Focused: A dedicated
xtaskautomation suite that simplifies complex multi-target builds.
Offline‑first testing & survey platform for military and enterprise, optimized for mobile and air‑gapped use.
- Full functionality offline: local encrypted storage, secure sync, backups
- Flexible tests/surveys: MCQ, free text, image‑based questions
- Anonymous questionnaires with one‑time tokens/QR, identity–answer separation
- Role‑based access, PWA client, Windows installer, encrypted exports
Military Training Center Management System for air‑gapped, constrained environments.
- Focus on reliability and simple, single‑binary operations
- Minimal external dependencies, deterministic behavior
- Suited for strict security postures and isolated deployments
- Zero‑dependency, single‑binary Rust applications
- Profile‑guided optimization (PGO), low‑latency networking
- Type‑driven design, cryptographic storage & licensing, defensive sandboxing
