Profile: https://flows.cv/kirillkarbutov

Skilled software engineer with a passion for building innovative applications that merge functionality with aesthetic appeal. With a Bachelor's degree in Computer Information Systems from CUNY Baruch College, I have gained expertise in various programming languages such as HTML/CSS, Javascript, Typescript, Python, and SQL.

My experience includes contributing to open source projects such as Orbital | Kafka Performance Visualization Tool and developing full-stack social media applications like Instagram AI. Leveraging technologies such as React, React Router, Redux, Node, NextJS, Material UI, Express, MongoDB, Panda, Numpy, Prometheus, Apache Kafka, Docker, AWS, and Github/Git, I have architected RESTful APIs, implemented OAuth 2.0, used NoSQL databases, and created dynamic UI interfaces.

Outside of work, I am an avid comic book enthusiast. I find profound inspiration in the moral compass and values portrayed by the beloved superheroes of my childhood. The stories of these heroes have left an incredible mark on my character, shaping my own principles, ideas, and creative endeavors. Alongside my passion for comics, I enjoy exploring the beauty of nature through hiking with my dog Milo and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
