Bogdan Novosad

Senior/Staff Software Engineer · Agentic development · Go, Rust, C#/.NET

I have 13 years of experience building backend systems, SaaS products and developer tooling, most recently on a learning management platform used by schools across Europe.

Since early 2026 most of my work is agentic development: I deliver production tickets through a multi-agent workflow I designed, introduced it to my company and teach it to other engineers in seminars. With the same approach I build and ship my own products in Go and Rust.

Open to Senior/Staff backend, platform and developer-tooling roles, full-time or B2B contract. Remote in Europe, or on site after relocating to Madrid or Barcelona.

01How I ship with agents

Agents do the legwork, every step has one owner, and a person decides what ships.

  1. 1

    Research

    Agents pull the ticket, docs and code context from Jira, Confluence and GitLab over MCP.

  2. 2

    Plan

    An architecture role maps the affected components and checks the design against the code.

  3. 3

    Write

    One agent owns the source change. Never two writers on the same files.

  4. 4

    Review and verify

    A separate agent reviews the final diff; builds and Playwright tests run before anything moves on.

  5. 5

    Approve

    Nothing is pushed, merged or changed in Jira without explicit human approval. I review every change.
