Technology leadership. A curious mind.
I connect ideas from physics, technology and management. I examine the evidence and turn complex subjects into clear explanations.

Financial advisers used a vendor platform for communications. The work combined supporting the existing solution with developing the company's own platform.
Built the business case and secured approval for an investment budget to develop an in-house chat platform. Built a team of developers, analysts, QA specialists and DevOps engineers.
An investment budget of more than RUB 70 million was approved. The team was formed and development of BCS's in-house communications platform was organised.
A deployment freeze was approaching in December 2025. The releases covered the B2C lending domain, with six backend/API services and integrations between banking systems.
Organised 13 releases before the deployment freeze began. Established release controls covering early release-version commitment, a mid-sprint review and readiness criteria.
The team delivered 13 releases in 10 business days before the freeze. No post-release defects were recorded following these releases.
The team was developing the bank's virtual assistant and chatbot. The work included releasing changes, moving from a monolithic architecture to microservices and migrating consumers away from legacy services.
Established a release process with progressive rollout, feature toggles, health checks and error alerts. Organised regular error analysis and more than 40 backend releases in two months.
The team delivered more than 40 backend releases over a two-month period. The modernisation work included three service consumer migrations and the retirement of two major legacy services. The team moved the chatbot systems to microservices and completed the migration into the virtual assistant.
I like the path from the first question to a finished thing. Whether it is a technology platform, a photograph or a piece of music.
