Senior Freelance Distributed Developer
I’m a software engineer working on distributed systems and high performance servers. My language of choice used to be C++, but recently I’m leaning more and more towards Rust, which I consider a language for everybody. I’m also a long time open-source contributor and maintainer, and that includes a few Rust projects as well.
Senior Freelance Distributed Developer
I began working in software development in 2006. I’m an engineer with solid technical support and sysadmin background, specializing in enabling tech for business, multi-platform full-stack distributed development, Identity Access Management, integration, porting, refactoring, cloud extensive (Azure and AWS), on-premises, and hybrid solutions. Solving complex problems, putting pieces together, building things, mastering new ones, expanding my scope of work to help my team and the whole business or company, leveraging other efforts, and turning complex things into simple ones come naturally to me. I like and am used to: • Take on many/different roles and responsibilities. Exceed expectations. • Be part of a team regardless of its size, learn from my peers, help, teach, unblock, and lead them. Shares experiences, keep in touch, make friends. • Design, build, release, maintain and decommission applications using ALM, SDLC, DevOps, TDD, BDD, and all kinds of programming languages, tools, cloud (SAAS, PAAS, IAAS) and on-premises resources, or both. • Develop async, multi-threaded, optimized, easy to maintain, and well-documented code. • Deliver on time, keep attention to progress and adjust as necessary. • Try and master new things quickly and early: I was doing .NET on Linux way before .NET Core appeared and SPA before the term was coined.
