> About
Hi there, I'm happy you landed on my page. Currently, I'm open to work and actively looking for interesting remote positions around the world.

> Cloud/DevOps Engineer & Full-Stack Developer
I'm a driven software engineer with over five years of
experience in Cloud, DevOps, and Full-Stack development, holding
the "AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate"
certification. Throughout my career I had a chance to lead small
to mid-sized projects from design to deployment, maintenance and
monitoring; and consulting on internal migration projects.
I'm self-motivated, detail-oriented, and possess strong
technical and soft skills. With my positive attitude and
energy, and excellent communication and collaboration
abilities, I'm a great team player and a valuable asset to any
organization.
In addition to my professional work, I'm also an avid developer
in my free time. I've been honing my full-stack development
skills by building a side project for the last 2 years—a web
application that is currently deployed on Azure and being used
by over 500 users.
