Summary of qualification
I develop software professionally for 20 years. Language-agnostic, but
mostly experienced in Go, C and Python. Wrote software for desktop, mobile and
servers.
Mostly experienced with relational databases, but have some hands-on experience
with NoSQL, columnar and timeseries databases.
Worked in teams ranging from 2 to ~20 people.
Job experience
| Apr 2016 - Jun 2023 |
Uber. Senior engineer in the Observability organization.
Mostly worked on developing On-Call Experience tooling, but also
touched host-level monitoring and logging platform.
Our team was developing and maintaining several
web applications integrated with various observability tooling that exposed
the available diagnostic material to the on-call engineers (used by thousands of
engineers across the entire company), as well as allowing them to systematically
improve their process.
As a senior engineer I had wide range of responsibilities in the
team. Working on the software components that I owned, I did the
entire lifecycle: wrote the architecture documents, led the work on
implementation, provided the documentation and finally, maintained
the system after launch.
On the people side, my responsibilities ranged from interviewing
people, to helping them onboard smoothly, to growing more junior
engineers along their careers.
Also worked on improving host-level monitoring scalability.
The monitoring tools we were using at the time weren't meant to
monitor hundreds of thousands of servers, so extra layers of tooling
was necessary while other solutions were evaluated.
Worked on several features improving the logging platform on the
scale of ingestion of millions of lines per second and storing
several petabytes (
