Hello, my name is Sergey and I’m addicted to automation. I first tried it when I was 18 years old. I built an automated system in a famous online game to level up characters and sell them later. Since then, I have been making a living through automation. At the beginning of my career, I worked as a backend developer and developed a CRM system to automate logistics company routines. The next important point in my career was working for a company that organized business events. During this time, I gained extensive knowledge about communication through COM ports and network interfaces by implementing a web application that integrated with various hardware devices. Then, I finally found a job that aligned with my passion for automation, so I made a decision to switch from a developer to DevOps engineer. So far, I am very happy. Over the years, thanks to my experience, I have learned that true automation, without proper monitoring, can actually make work more difficult and maintenance more expensive.

I have over 10 years of professional experience, with 5 years as a software developer and almost 6 years as a DevOps engineer. My core skills include monitoring and functional programming concepts such as immutability and referential transparency that I use in infrastructure design. These skills help me to build reliable and maintainable systems.

In my work I use:

  - Linux, Shell script
  - Python, Go
  - Prometheus, Grafana, Loki
  - Jenkins
  - Kubernetes, terraform, docker
  - AWS

Having lived in 28 countries over the past 10 years, I am comfortable working in multicultural teams and adapting to new environments.
