Position: Team Lead/Architect & Senior Developer
Category: Lead
English level: fluent
Years of experience: 6

Coordinating 8 developers for a Netherlands-based client, leading rescue of a mis-planned performance marketing solution, as well maintaing a legacy high-volume pure-PHP application. Architect, Leader, Trainer and Inspirator.
I am the go-to man in the project to consult and solve problems. Inspire and train, plan the workflow, brainstorm with the product owner and managers. I ensure developers both work in their most efficient way, and expand their knowledge and take responsibility. Bring new tools and improve the workflow, automating testing and deployment, to find the sweet spot for the project at hand. Always having production systems in mind, I like to know the systems back-to-back, and oversee all main operations on it.

German National, finished my Masters education in Computer Science at TU Darmstadt in Germany. Worked a few years freelance and headed a 5-developer software engineering team, then spent 8 months in an international company's R&D department. Now looking for the next job challenge.

Loving agile, test driven development, continuous delivery, etc. 

University specialisation is in complex algorithms (graph algorithms, optimisation algorithms, etc). I like to do complicated things. Native german and advanced business english. Daily life russian knowledge, which i wish to imrpove further.

Started learning PHP development in 2005, and started selling PHP web development in the beginning of university in 2009. Fulltime since the end of university in 2015.

Constant improvement of the work style is a need, unwilling to work only with "old tools, the old way", without a strong wish to improve, but instead "automate and improve whatever we can".

Expecting flexible working hours, at least partial remote work. The company should measure success by reaching goals, not by  punctuality of my office hours (though I will always be present on all necessary meetings). Work-Life Balance is important. Short commute from Vinogradar (Kiev) a big plus.

Currently on a long car trip, but if interested, please get in contact, I will get back to you within a few days.
Interesting, agile, modern work environment, constant wish and time allocation to improve the work environment by company.
Honesty by company managers.
Flexible working hours, part-remote.
Looking for complex, interesting, tailor-made solutions. Not "another wordpress site/plugin".
