About

Svetlin Slavov is a highly skilled Backend Software Engineer with 5 years of experience in building scalable backend systems using Python and Golang. Currently working at HotJar as a Backend Software Engineer, he has a proven track record of delivering high-quality work on big systems that support huge streams of data. However, he is most passionate about developing smaller self-contained automation tools and scripts that increase the team's productivity. Svetlin's expertise extends beyond technology, as he enjoys having discussions and exchanging ideas with Product People and Designers just as much as Software Engineers. He is a great communicator and collaborator, which makes him a valuable addition to any team. Prior to joining HotJar, Svetlin worked at Fanduel as a Data Engineer, where he bootstrapped flow and automated processing for multiple data sources. He also worked at Uber as a Software Engineer II, where he created data aggregators to support new payment entity-relationships across France, Spain, Italy, and Mexico. He monitored the system by adding M3 platform metrics and ensured compliance between Uber, Restaurants, and ~250k Active Couriers with more than 68M correct invoices generated since. Svetlin holds a Bachelor's Degree in Management Information Systems, General from Sofia University St. Kliment Ohridski and a Secondary Education in English Language and Literature, General from English Language High School Geo Milev, Burgas. His technical skills include Software Engineering, Backend, Data Engineering, Apache Airflow, Python, and Golang.
