Discovery
Understanding the task, the users, current processes and real constraints before writing code.
[Vladyslav Savchenko] Backend & AI Automation Systems Engineer
I design and build Python-powered backend systems, AI integrations and automation platforms — connecting complex logic, data and user interfaces into reliable software products.

01[Technical philosophy]
Build systems, not disconnected features.
Reliable software requires more than working code. Architecture, data integrity, observability, failure recovery and maintainability matter just as much as functionality.
Grouped the way they meet in real products — not a wall of logos.
Services that coordinate work, talk to the outside world and keep going when it misbehaves.
Data models that stay correct as more subsystems read and write them.
Language models where they help, deterministic rules where correctness matters.
Interfaces that make complex backend state understandable.
Market data, signals and risk controls — engineered, not promised.
Getting software running, keeping it observable, proving it still works.
03[Selected work]
Astra Raven is a production trading & AI automation ecosystem. Its subsystems are presented here as individual engineering case studies — alongside standalone tools built around it.
Not separate client projects. One system, many hard problems.
Scope, timeline and cost are defined after understanding your requirements — not before.
Python backend services, application architecture, API integrations, server-side logic and data processing.
Internal platforms · API backends · Custom business systems
Adding AI features to existing applications, designing LLM-assisted workflows, model integrations and structured automation.
AI assistants · Intelligent workflows · LLM-backed business tools

Telegram Mini Apps · Web dashboards · Account interfaces
Audits, diagnostics, bug fixing, architecture modernisation, reliability improvements and maintenance of systems already in production.
Production debugging · Backend modernisation · Automation maintenance
05[Development process]
Understanding the task, the users, current processes and real constraints before writing code.
Designing the main components, data structures and integrations — and how they fail.
Building backend, interfaces and automation step by step, in reviewable increments.
Testing system behaviour, errors, states and critical scenarios, not just the happy path.
Releasing to the right environment and checking how it actually behaves there.
Monitoring, diagnostics and continued development after launch.
AI-assisted development is used to move faster — never as a replacement for technical control. Every change is understood, reviewed and verified.
