Sergei Shestakov is a Software Consultant and Efx Developer at HSBC. He is proficient in English and Latvian. Colleagues describe him as "Sergei is a very smart, hardworking and diligent professional, with a keen eye for detail, an eager and fast learner and a great team member. And on top of it all Sergei is a personification of positivity! I've never seen him frown once even in high stress situations, he brings a very positive dynamics into every team! I'd definitely recommend Sergei to any company and any team and given a chance, I'd happily work with Sergei again!" and "Whilst learning StreamBase he picked up FSMs (modelling the TCP and IP state machines), wrote a PCAP adapter, and fairly complex deep stateful packet inspection in StreamBase's graphical CEP language and Java with minimal direction. Serge hadn't done any significant network programming beforehand. He rose to the challenge. Serge is bright, cheerful, consistently delivers, and is very easy to manage, especially in fast-paced environments where delivery requires maturity, focus and discipline with minimal or no supervision."
