Position: Python Tech Lead / Solutions Architect
Category: Lead
English level: upper
Years of experience: 6

In my current project (Fintech), I have:
- Led solution building from initial customer's idea to MVP implementation;
- Led discovery phase, where worked on requirements elicitation, designed solution architecture and prepared estimates;
- Designed and implemented state-of-the-art passwordless authentication based on asymmetric cryptography;
- Established processes on the project (like ticket flow, release flow, etc);
- Led the development team - created tasks, performed sprint planning, code reviews, solution governance.

Main achievements:
- The MVP phase is implemented in time and the scope of the budget;
- High-quality implementation: clean and easy to extend architecture, high unit testing coverage (85%<), API documentation, a small percentage of bugs in production env;
- Happy customers as a result.

In my previous project (Fintech): 
Significantly increased project quality in less than 6 months. 
Previously: 
- Several bugs were found on production per week;
- The team spends most of the time on bugfix and maintenance;
- No unit tests at all;
- Very complicated code: a lot of functions with cognitive complexity of more than 50, files with more than 5k lines of code;
- No delivery processes. 

Now: 
- No bugs have been found on production for the last two months;
- Time needed for bugfix and maintenance reduced several times;
- Covered 52% (most critical parts) of the application with unit tests;
- Refactored all functions to reduce cognitive complexity to less than 15 and restructured the project to have files with less than 500 lines of code;
- Established full delivery process from planning to final production deployment.
I have more than 6 years of experience in software development, 3 years and 7 months in the Technical Lead position. I have strong expertise in solution and architecture design processes, Python backend and clouds (AWS) & DevOps practices. Also, I have AWS Solutions Architect certificate.

I'm focused on building solutions that solve business problems from an initial idea to full implementation and its delivery. Not in writing some abstract code or completing some abstract tasks.

My main responsibilities are: 
- Presales and discoveries;
- Leading a team;
- Communication with technical and non-technical customers;
- Requirements elicitation;
- Architecture designing;
- Architecture governance;
- Overall supervision of a project, and its delivery.
Don't want to work in an extension team. 
No legacy and maintenance. 
No gambling.
