Position: CTO
Category: Lead
English level: fluent
Years of experience: 10

On the current place: 
- Migrations between seeral DC providers
- Team hiring (from 3 to 25 employees in 6 months)
- Dev processes building
- Budget control (audit and budget optimization for 25-30%)
- HelpDesk building and launch
After several years of IT team leading I can say, that I love to build and support IT processes not less, than writing old good code. My key targets in leadership are:

- troubleshooting for my team
- building transparent interaction between IT and business users
- deliver useful products to users

I've successfully build three teams and won't stop on this. My current team contains PHP-developers, Java-developers and DevOps engeneers. The main idea in my team is to reduce downtimes and errors and automate more and more routine jobs. Work should inspire and give new experience to my team.

I don't really trust in the role of "playing coach". Good IT manager should know how to balance the load between his team memebers instead of doing their job by his own. But it doesn't mean, that Head of development shouldn't work with proof of concepts and high level solutions.
Work should bring satisfaction. IT has been created for this :)

I like to discover, investigate and optimize; to increase the failover level, think on system safety and performance.
