Turning business vision into systems that scale.
I'm Dzmitry Harupa, Head of Architecture. 17 years of high-load systems, 10 of them in iGaming. I design architecture, take AI/ML to production and still write code myself. TOGAF, SAFe and AWS certified. 100% remote.

NATS event mesh at scale
200K+ msgs/sec across 1000+ systems, <100ms p99 latency.
Monolith → microservices
40% of transactional load migrated; release lead time down 57%, deploys under 15 minutes.
Decisions on data. Results in numbers.
An architect who stays until it ships.
Ten years in iGaming: Casino, Sports, Poker, PAM, payments and CRM. Production AI/ML on AWS Bedrock, SageMaker and LangGraph.
I grew an architecture practice from 6 to 12 architects plus 20 system analysts, mentored three of them to Head-of-Technology roles and led 200+ engineers. I still write production code.
Notes on architecture and AI.
What I work with: architecture, AI/ML, iGaming.
My Architect, part 10: a repo memory for the agent — a code graph it's not allowed to trust
The recursive-context story continues: four releases in one day teach the agent a persistent code graph (Graphify) under strict distrust rules — freshness gate, facts only from live files. Plus a controlled A/B test of graph vs grep on NestJS: −71% tokens on subsystem understanding, parity elsewhere — and the hidden sub-agent costs that make naive benchmarks lie.
ReadMy Architect, part 9: Recursive context — teaching the agent to admit what it hasn't read
From MIT's Recursive Language Models paper to the recursive-context skill in one day: why a huge context window doesn't solve big data, how a fan-out of isolated sub-agents with honest coverage replaced a Python library, and what only live runs could catch — from a baseline that turned out too good to a 14-millisecond bug.
ReadMy Architect, part 8: Event Storming as sequence control, not another diagram
A picture-diagram checks nothing. Event Storming does: every event has a cause, every command an effect. How an agent runs a board through a deterministic sequence analyzer, closes mechanical gaps to zero, and leaves unresolved business questions visible. On a live Forklift project — 5 contexts, 17 gaps caught.
