Position: CTO / Architect
Category: Lead
English level: fluent
Years of experience: 11

I've collected knowledge and experience that gives me a clear understanding of how to bring a project from nothing to a big scale. Worked in IoT, DevOps, WebDev, Infrastructure, between domains to get a broader view as possible.
I have developed high-quality software for high-scale production systems using best-in-class tools and technologies, was effectively leading teams of engineers growing an outstanding working culture. Currently working as CTO for a US-based product company where I have built a great team of developers and am leading a transition from microservices to a serverless architecture. This transition allowed us to dramatically reduce the cost of development and infrastructure paving the ground for future development. In my previous job, I was architecting and leading the development of a proprietary infrastructure management system that was in charge of scaling, deploying, and monitoring all stateless services on over 18 000 EC2 instances serving over 80 billion requests daily across multiple regions (US, EU). It provided a high-quality UI and a unified GraphQL API for various UI clients, CLIs, and other tools providing data from EC2, S3, ELB, CloudWatch, Consul, RabbitMQ, GitLab API, Jenkins, Kubernetes, Graphana, Artifactory, and various internal APIs and databases with live updates via web socket subscriptions (including AWS events like EC2 instance lifecycle). Encapsulated all domain-specific operations reducing DevOps involvement dramatically. Combined all infrastructure management under one UI enabling a single context for developers as a complete application lifecycle management platform: from deployment to test/staging/production environments to autoscaling and monitoring. It lowered a barrier to entry for new developers in a company, time spent on application management, allowing automated continuous delivery, and much more. Now multiple teams in the company are contributing features to the platform enriching it with their specific functionality. Participated in a migration process to Kubernetes instead of an inefficient proprietary deployment mechanism.
I'd like to take leadership over RnD in a startup or a product company. My skills and knowledge gained within more than 10 years would help to grow a project from 0 to a high load. I'd take ownership over a whole stack, from Cloud Ops and building development culture to project development and CI/CD, monitoring, scaling, etc.
