I am proud to work in a team that has created a product that has received worldwide recognition.

But the best project I've created is one that my son was involved in. This is a couple in ballroom dancing, which became the silver medalist of the World Cup and the silver medalist of the Ukrainian Championship.
I understand that this is not a project that generates income, but, nevertheless, it went through all the classic stages from initiation to completion. And all the difficulties that I had to endure during this time, in my opinion, significantly exceed those that may arise in the development team.
- 5 years experience in management 
- 20 years of programming experience 
- 1 year of experience in testing (excluding smoke tests and unit tests that were written later as a developer) 
- 2 years of experience interacting with a team remotely 

I understand the entire project management cycle and the role of each of its participants. I have excellent communication skills. I had to deal with crisis situations in the team. I can decompose tasks and write technical specifications. Currently interested in the role of IT Project Manager. I want to implement the knowledge and skills that I have acquired over the years.

After the completion of the project, there was a desire to improve my knowledge and skills in web development. For this, I went to work at Amadeus initially for a year or two. It was hard to imagine that the future project would grow into a product that would be used by more than 100 countries and that a development center would appear in Kiev, which would employ more than a hundred programmers. But thanks to my PM, it became possible. Throughout all these years I have had the opportunity to learn from him. I also participated in the Agile workshop (Scrum, Kanban) and was one of the participants in the implementation of Agile in the development team.
