What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can contribute to impactful projects and continue to grow my technical skills.

I am a software engineer with over 5 years of experience in developing scalable and test-driven applications. My expertise includes the development of microservices, CI/CD deployment pipelines, and monitoring applications in Kubernetes clusters. I thrive in collaborative environments and can also drive projects independently.

At Coolbet, I designed and implemented CI/CD pipelines that boosted deployment efficiency by 20%. I also enhanced system observability by 25% through effective monitoring and alerting practices. My role involved diagnosing critical issues in Kubernetes clusters, which led to a 15% reduction in downtime. I am passionate about leveraging technology to improve operational efficiency and ensure high availability of services.

Previously, I worked at Boca Konsult, where I led the migration of a legacy application to a microservices architecture, resulting in a 50% boost in system efficiency. My commitment to continuous improvement is reflected in my mentorship of new engineers and my proactive approach to incident response and root cause analysis.
