Summary
Engineer-level entry with over 20 years of IT experience – from embedded systems and CI/CD to Linux and DevOps platforms. From 2000 to 2014, I also worked in deeply technical roles, so I still have solid technical knowledge. Since 2014, I have focused on leading cross-functional teams and building product-centered (DevOps) organizations. I combine deep technical skills with leadership strength – actively bridging development, operations, and business stakeholders. My technical potential may not always be fully utilized, but it is essential for the success of complex DevOps transformation projects.
