My story
Well, I like tech in all kinds and I've been always curious how everything works. So I've started from breaking software as a QA and then learned how to build them better as a software engineer.
- As a kidFirst lines of QBasic
I got curious how computer games are built, so I've started trying to do something by myself
Nizhny Novgorod - 2008Mechanics and Mathematics at Lobachevsky University
It's not actually about IT, but I've learned how to program in C++ and spent a lot of time solving math equations
- 2009–13QA engineer, then QA lead, at Tecom
TV broadcasting software and hardware. Got my hands dirty in the TV broadcasting lab while doing a lot of automation. Fell in love with Python for the first time
- 2013–17QA lead, automation, CI/CD
More automations, internal tools and many small desktop apps
- 2017-20QA & DevOps manager at Quantenna
I was part of the company producing Wi-Fi chips and helped them with QA tools and automations while leading two teams
Saint Petersburg - 2020–26Senior software engineer, then tech lead, at what. AG
Fully switched to software engineering, built a lot of websites, CMS extensions, apps and products. Oversaw the whole company tech strategy in the meantime. I've learned many engineering skills during that period of time, built around 60 projects. Also I've discovered and adopted AI into my daily engineering routine. So AI agents are helping me to build stuff day and night since 2025

Being a tech lead was fun, but I always wanted to build more myself. I also like driving and video games, so this match was inevitable
