Mikhail Iartcev

I’m a backend software engineer, tech lead and manager based in Stockholm, with 15+ years in .NET/C# and distributed systems. I’ve led backend teams and shipped mission-critical and data-heavy B2B integrations across domains like travel, fintech, i-gaming, automotive, adtech.

I mentor engineers who want to grow in areas like system design, writing maintainable code, debugging and incident thinking, cloud/Kubernetes fundamentals, and the “day-2” stuff that makes systems reliable (CI/CD, observability, operational habits). I also help with leadership: stepping into TL/EM responsibilities, giving and receiving feedback, aligning with Product, and building a team culture with clear ownership.

My style is practical and structured: we pick a concrete goal, work from real examples (your code, your project, your interview loop), and turn each session into an actionable plan for the next week.
