Hi!

I’m Adlet, a Senior Software Engineer at Delivery Hero, based in Berlin 🇩🇪.

You may not know Delivery Hero, but you likely know our brands: Glovo, Talabat, Foodpanda, PedidosYa, BAEMIN, and more. I grew up in Kazakhstan 🇰🇿, moved to Germany, and now build products at global scale.

In 3 years, I accelerated my career from New Grad to Senior Engineer in Big Tech by age 24. I had great mentors. Most people don’t. That’s the gap I’m here to close. This newsletter is for engineers who want to grow faster — in code, career, and clarity.

I’ll post weekly, covering a wide range of engineering topics. The great engineers are generalists. So expect getting posts about system design, career advice, and more. This isn’t a fixed format blog. It’s a sandbox. A place to explore, experiment, and share.

I’m here to learn in public. You’ll learn (and enjoy) along the way too.

Until next time,
Adlet
