Years of experience: 11


2 last big projects (2017-2021, 2022-2023):

1. Takeoff
Started as Senior Engineer, spent first 2 years as a Individual Contributor. Achievements: created UI for managing e-commerce site's content, implemented full-text and faceted search for clients, implemented ETL (Extract-Transform-Load) for 2 customers, kick-off first iteration of inventory management system. Also, rewritten existing functionality from Python to Clojure to speed up, less bug and uniformity.

Next 2 years, leading a small team, sharing part-time Scrum Master role at the very start, then continue as IC.

During that time, I had a few business trips to USA to roll out my new functionality on-site (that was the case with full text search and inventory management system).

2. Raiffeisen Bank Ukraine
I started same time as war started. In a year, hired and onboarded 10 engineers (conducted over 40 interviews). Same time supported running system (almost no unplanned downtimes). Before me, there was no software engineering competencies in the bank team - they rely on outsourcing company from Belarus.


My goal is to move towards Architect/CTO role.
