Software & cloud engineer with managerial & other human skills
Location: Berlin, Germany Citizenship: Estonian (EU) E-mail: nikolai.zujev@gmail.com Known as: jaymecd (/ˈdʒeɪ·mek·dɪ/) |
Software and cloud engineer (not DevOps) with a broad range of experience, but not limited to:
• creating backend software solutions & tooling
• building cloud-based systems and platforms
• leading cross-functional team up to 10 people
• discovering domain models with business team
Flexible and committed individual with good communication and excellent troubleshooting skills.
Capable of quickly adapting to changing environments and leading a development team.
All time learner, eventual open-source project contributor.
Basic principles I adhere:
• DevOps is not a role, rather a responsibility
• take care of your team and help to upskill
• just ask, worst answer you can get is 'no'
• pick a right tool to solve an exact problem
• domain-centric software development
• convert unknown to known with #DDD & #NoEstimates
