Anton Nazarov
@antonnazarov
Technology leader and systems architect helping businesses turn messy processes into automated ERP/CRM and backend workflows.
What I'm looking for
I am a technology leader and systems architect with 18 years of experience across internal systems, software delivery, infrastructure, automation, and IT leadership. I started in Lotus/Domino development and user support, later building a banking document-management system and rebuilding sector-level information services, and I now deliver ERP/CRM, portals, automation, and backend-heavy low-code/hybrid solutions for clients.
I’m at my best when the system already exists—but the process is messy: it half-lives in Excel, email, and chat, access rules drift, and the ownership of steps is unclear. I map how people actually work, where data gets lost, which roles are real, and what can be automated without breaking daily operations, using hands-on architecture and rollout discipline.
