Resume on Simbiat Software

About

This is the section, where you can learn about Simbiat Software.

Informal introduction

While my "on paper" experience is mainly application support in a bank, in reality I had to take on [portions] of other roles like developer, tester, application manager (akin to product owner), project manager, business/system analyst, security specialist, technical writer, processes architect, supplier manager and "coordinator" for different types of activities related to the above, including multi-department, multi-business and multi-country ones.

I code for a hobby while posting most of my code on GitHub and Codepen Codepen. It is mainly PHP, but you can find some code in JavaScript and Visual Basic (.NET, script and for applications).

I am empathetic and analytical, which helps with understanding of the feelings of others, where they come from and what they may, potentially, want or, at least, expect. Among other things the combination of these two has found its ways into my prose (and some poems) both in Russian and English. I also have some experience in "level design", which included rooms/caves for The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind and our guild house in Final Fantasy XIV.

Besides that I got some level of skill with graphics and video editing, although it's a far cry from what professional editors have.

Below you can find a more "formal" resume tailored with the help of TopResume.
