about me

I am a professional IT engineer, currently leading small team of QA engineers and IT Support specialists from a position of QA and Support Manager.

Throughout my career, besides the above, I've been a Developer, DevOps Engineer, QA Engineer, Support specialist and Project Manager on internal projects, which perfectly illustrates my adaptive nature. I poses vast domain knowledge about shared hosting, cloud hosting, domain registration and billing. Although this was the main direction of my professional development, my private interests keep me in the loop with all the modern technologies including AI and Machine Learning, Blockchain, latest development trends and much more.
