Develops services involved in one of the most loaded and complex parts of the system: the main Eats screen. Every day, these services select the best offers for users and process traffic from every app featuring Yandex Eats.

Prior to Yandex, Alexander helped develop a B2B financial modeling platform for managing and evaluating real estate investments.

In his spare time, he develops (but more often only has enough time to dream about) highly specialized programming languages.

I’m a big fan of C++ and had experience writing my own web version of a mini framework even before starting at Yandex. Then when I read an article about the userver framework, I fell in love with it and knew that Yandex was the place for me. I worked in Yandex Eats for more than a year with userver and helped develop it to the new level. When I had the experience to realize that I was more interested in the infrastructure than the product, I transitioned to a position as a full-fledged member of the userver team. Currently, I’m focused on developing userver and a dynamic config service.

Currently developing C/C++ compilers for the AArch64 architecture. Development experience:

• Neural network compiler for the Neural Processing Unit (NPU).
• Optimization of compilers for VLIW-architecture and SPARC architecture for C, C++, and Fortran.
• OpenCL for VLIW-architecture.
• AddressSanitizer and MemorySanitizer for VLIW-architecture.
• Optimal exception handling in C++ for the VLIW-architecture.

Alexander has 23 years of C++ development experience, 16 in commercial development. During this time, he’s worked in-depth with VoIP telephony, helped create DPI for trunk channels, designed and implemented cloud storage for 10 PB of data, and supported and developed the SDK antivirus.
