Years of experience: 4

* In a team of 3, we have built and deployed a system for running computation-intensive workloads involving multi-threaded workers, composable containerized calculation steps, and input data filtering and parametrization.
* For a variety of clients and engagements, I have personally designed, fine-tuned and deployed data engineering and analytics tools primarily dealing with natural language and geo-spatial data.
* I have built several conversational interfaces (telegram bots) for client and personal needs.
* In a non-technical setting, I have led a team of 3 in-house and 2 freelance contributors to maintain a critical business process for a client. We have optimized and automated major parts of the process, cutting costs and delivery times by up to 70%.
* In 2021-2022, I've been working as a Senior SWE on an R&D/PoC team of a biotech company, employing emerging technologies to solve non-conventional software development problems.
* In 2018-2021, I worked on numerous freelance projects featuring business process automation, data engineering, full-stack development and natural language processing;
* In 2015-2018, I've had experience leading & coordinating teams of 3-5 contributors in a non-technical setting for 3 years;

As a leader, I take especial care in clear verbal and written communication, inclusive decision-making, leading by example, and combining a robust delivery cadence with the well-being of the team.

As a developer, I am passionate about writing performant, readable code, and ensuring good ergonomics and developer experience for myself and the team. I also take code review as an opportunity for mutual learning with fellow team mates.
Seeking to combine my prior management experience in non-tech with technical experience as an engineer.

I'm more inclined to work with companies with a positive mission -- historically, it's mostly been environmental, health and biotech, but I'm also very passionate about global education, human and animal rights, bridging various inequality gaps. 

Needless to say, as I'm Ukrainian, I will decline offers from companies owned or run by Russian nationals or holding organizations.
