Full CV

My Journey

19+ years from first lines of code to leading engineering at a European energy giant

I started my career as a junior .NET developer in Saint Petersburg, driven by curiosity and a passion for building things that matter. Over the years, I've grown through every stage — from hands-on coding at Heineken and architecting solutions at Veeam Software, to leading engineering teams for global clients like Daimler, L'Oréal, and ThyssenKrupp. For the last 6 years I led engineering at Gazprom Germania / SEFE — first as Tech Leader in Saint Petersburg, then as Head of Software Development in Berlin, building a core team of 12 and scaling it to 32 with contractors. Since January 2026 I run my own practice: my own product, open source and consulting for enterprise clients.

I've built 3 engineering teams from scratch, mentored 5+ developers into senior roles, and consistently delivered 25%+ efficiency gains. Now I'm combining my enterprise architecture background with AI — building intelligent automation workflows, LLM orchestration systems, and RAG pipelines that transform how businesses operate.
