Welcome to the Yandex Platform Engineering site. We are building the infrastructure used to maintain and develop Yandex products.
Platform engineering is a new approach to software development that has grown out of DevOps and is now growing in popularity. Platform Engineering has its site and its international conference.
Platform Engineering's primary goal is to free up time for product development teams by providing self-service configuration tools and automating routine tasks that require interaction with the underlying infrastructure.
We have a large infrastructure development department at Yandex that creates tools and supports all phases of product development, from planning and design to launch and support.
Here are a few things to know about our team:
To simplify the development of complex, heavy-load Yandex products. We build infrastructure from the ground up, allowing developers to focus on what's important.

In such a large department, assigning everyone to a specific team can be difficult, so we put all developers through a bootcamp where they rotate through four teams and work on a variety of projects.
Teams are formed from various parts of the department and are based on the programming languages they use. You can stay in any of the four teams you've worked with so far in boot camp, or you can move on to the next two.
The bootcamp is a great way to meet people and learn about different departments. We've been running the bootcamp for two years and have seen how it helps people find the team right for them.
