Heriniandro RakotobeSenior Backend Developer & Technical Consultant

I'm a backend developer with 15+ years of experience building scalable systems that help businesses grow. Based in Montreal, I work with companies to modernize their architecture and solve complex technical challenges.

Recent Experience: At Lightspeed, I contributed to migrating monolithic systems to Golang microservices and developed APIs handling complex pricing and inventory logic. Previously at MindGeek, I had the opportunity to lead a team of 5 engineers while building pricing engines that processed 100K+ daily transactions.

What I Focus On: I believe in writing clean, maintainable code that delivers real business value. My approach combines solid engineering principles with practical solutions that work reliably in production environments.

Technical Skills:

• Languages: Golang, PHP, Java, Ruby, JavaScript/TypeScript

• Architecture: Microservices, RESTful APIs, GraphQL, Event-driven systems

• Infrastructure: Docker, CI/CD pipelines, monitoring (DataDog, Grafana)

• Databases: PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, MySQL

• Methodologies: Clean Architecture, TDD/BDD, Agile development

Diverse Background: I've had the privilege of working across different industries and regions—from managing Internet resources in Africa (AFRINIC) to ensuring compliance in European markets. This experience has taught me to adapt solutions to various business contexts and regulatory requirements.

I'm passionate about helping teams build robust, scalable systems. Whether you're modernizing legacy architecture or building new services, I'd be happy to discuss how I can contribute to your project's success.
