Irina Kamalova
VP Lead Software Engineer
JPMorganChase

Irina is a Founder of Women Coding Community and a VP Lead Software Engineer at JPMorgan Chase. Her experience as a Software Engineer included working with large projects, search engines, distributed systems, performance issues, and huge data storage. She has worked at Revolut and built a platform for retail products. That includes support services to handle 45 million clients, huge throughput and provide law latency for data flow. Irina mentoring mid-level engineers, constantly helps her team to tackle the extra mile and help the company to improve an intervening process, onboarding new hires, navigating interns and running knowledge-sharing activities.

As a cherry on top, she helped to launch the inner Revolut Women Guild “RevWomen”. Apart from being a strong developer and a leader of tech initiatives, in the last 3-years, she volunteered for CodeFirst: Girls and Women Who Code London and grew up from volunteer to lead and, in the end, to a Director role within the community. She organised a team to deliver outstanding projects and show impressive results. She built a guild of volunteers to deliver a Mentorship Programme, technical tracks, help with resumes, mock interviews and overall grown community more than triple.

Currently she's helping other networks by holding the position of Senior Director in WWCode. As soon as WWCode closed, I founded a new network Women Coding Community to continue to empower women to excel in the Tech Industry.
