Viktor Arkhipov
Engineering Group Lead / Senior Java & Scala engineer

Current
WB Bank: external integrations and customer data services.
What I do
Technical leadership with production context.
Design backend platforms
Build and validate service architectures for high-load products, integrations, data processing, and operationally sensitive systems.
Stabilize production systems
Analyze incidents, improve observability and deployment practices, simplify legacy flows, and make reliability work visible.
Experience
From hands-on backend engineering to technical leadership.
The common thread is ownership: services, architecture, delivery, production behavior, and the people process around them.
