I'm the 1st who dives into the problem, who tries and selects basic technologies, and then leads the implementation teams.My role is to be a part of the R&D, govern the architecture of a solution, which I see as a process.My duty is to have a clear understanding of a solution from the infrastructure level to an end-user interface. Every functional and technical component should serve the purposes it was designed for, it should satisfy the primary business requirements and organizational needs. I'm concerned not just with how the solution will operate in its own context, but how it will function in the context of the larger ecosystem.Technologies constantly evolve. They appear, become mature, and eventually are put on the shelf. As an architect, I'm responsible for discovering the current trends, adapting the best ones, and predicting the vectors. As a software developer, I should have a clear understanding of the program code and dive into the details. Combining two roles is a challenge which I accept.Pivots:- Research, design, and implementation of solutions and integration schemes that satisfy business requirements and IT regulations.- Participating in all stages of a system life cycle starting from the idea/design stage to the system commissioning and support.- Stress and functional test definitions, finding out weak places in a system, and creating elimination/mitigation plans.- Design and implementation of microservices and SOA/EDA architectures, also their mixes.Areas of expertise:- GenAI, LLMs, Inference;- Highly available and fail-safe distributed solutions, microservices and SOA architectures;- System security measures, cloud oriented development;- Kubernetes/Docker, Cloud Foundry, Golang, JEE/JSE, C++, Python, RDBMs, NoSQL;Interests and hobbies:- DIY devices, 3D printing;- Doing nothing;
