Product Manager at Kotlin, JetBrains
Since 2011, my expertise has been in dev. tooling development, beginning with quality engineering for Delphi and C++Builder IDEs. In 2015, JetBrains became my professional home, overseeing the quality of IntelliJ Scala plugin, later transitioning to product management for the Kotlin plugin. Currently I lead the K2-based plugin to Stable release and enhance the decision-making process within the Kotlin language team.
