Hi, I'm Artem!

Artem Kolpakov's portrait picture.

Specialty

I’m a full-stack developer who enjoys crafting seamless user experiences and architecting reliable & scalable backend systems. Over the course of my career, I’ve built software for web, iOS, and cross-platform applications—delivering everything from frontend interfaces to backend components spanning APIs, microservices, and data pipelines.

Education

I graduated from Oregon State University in June 2024 with a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and a 3.99 GPA. During my studies, I contributed to published research work and actively participated in the university’s App Development Club and ACM Student Chapter, taking part in several award-winning hackathons and ICPC contests.

Experience

Over the past three years, I’ve worked across a broad spectrum of software engineering — from building solutions for the state department of transportation and academic infrastructure at Oregon State University’s Center for Applied and Software, to developing user-facing features at Expedia Group used by millions of travelers worldwide.
