• Took over datacenters deployment from a third-party (expensive) company to an internal team and automated it. Initial deployment time dropped by 85% (from 14 to 2 days) and upgrade time by 93% (from 15 to 1 month), also reducing the gap between security patches release and their deployment to production.
• Optimized VM memory usage by removing unnecessary reservations, increasing the ability to host 60% more VMs on the same hardware (2000 servers across 25 datacenters), resulting in a 50% increase in company revenue.
• Tested, documented, and assisted teams in developing VPN solution that grew from 10 to 2500 VMs worldwide.
• I am a highly motivated leader with over 20 years of experience, the last 5 of which I have grown my own remote team from 2 to 10 engineers and managed it by interviewing candidates, onboarding, mentoring, and helping with their career development.
• In total, I managed about 5-7 teams, with 5–10 engineers each, depending on the project(s) workload.
• Leveraging Agile and Scrum methodologies and DevOps best practices to meet clients’ expectations.
• Focused on business continuity and lowering TCO by building solutions that will run 24x7 on a worldwide scale with no downtime.
I'd like to work with new challenging technologies and am ready to help to migrate to them rather than support old legacy stuff for years.
