Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolEvgeny Dontsov is a pragmatic software engineer and founder with 11 years of experience building embedded IoT systems, industrial drivers, and full-stack data platforms. He led development of an open-source Wi‑Fi water meter plugin and a production web platform for utility data (Django, PostgreSQL, InfluxDB, Grafana), while contributing improvements to popular ESP8266 tooling. Equally at home soldering hardware and shipping server-side features, he designs low-power firmware, device drivers, and CI/CD workflows for industrial and consumer projects. As a travel and stock photographer, he brings a visual and product-minded perspective to user-facing solutions and has applied that discipline to build polished documentation and integrations. Based in Bishkek, he combines hands-on engineering with product ownership and a track record of shipping both prototypes and field-ready systems.
