About

Professional summary

Since 2021, I have managed cloud gaming infrastructure remotely, supporting six physical servers and 72 VMware virtual machines. I handle VM deployment, resource allocation, remote access, software maintenance, troubleshooting, and infrastructure availability.

I take end-to-end ownership of technical tasks, from initial diagnostics and solution design through implementation and ongoing support. I am comfortable working independently in remote environments and prioritizing reliability and operational continuity.

My background also includes IT support, satellite network engineering, and facilities operations management at Gazprom Export LLC. I have led technical projects, coordinated contractors, managed operational expenses, and integrated engineering systems with digital infrastructure.

I bring systems thinking, reliability, and a results-oriented approach to infrastructure operations. I am an advanced English speaker and can communicate professionally in international technical environments.
