Zurich, Switzerland
I am skilled software engineer with solid practical experience in software development in UNIX and Windows environments. I respect both – open source and proprietary solutions. And I maintain one of the open source libraries for Python. I am always in love with challenging tasks and OO design and solutions. I am an expert in C/C++ and Python programming languages. Someone could even say that I am kind of Python-addicted and it's very close to the truth. Last 6 years I have been developing server components for small and large systems using these languages. I also have some experience in teaching small groups of students and leading small groups of developers. Specialties: OOP, design patterns, server architecture, C++, Python, XML, automated testing.
Developing services mostly using HTTP, SIP and internal protocol. Created very flexible and scalable database access layer which is used by many Skype back-end components. Developed internal testing tool. Dealt with many of Skype server components, being responsible for some of them. All designed and implemented components were meant to work under high-loads.
