I started my IT career in 1989 from hardware development, through IT infrastructure maintenance and
support, to software engineering, including software development, system analysis and architecture
design, system and business analysis, project & program management, IT and technologies leadership, IT
consulting. My industry background includes full range of positions starting as an engineer at hardware

program management, new business unit building from the scratch and up to 250 team members under
direct management, product scoping and management, middle management level duties execution till
recent top level strategic and visionary positions of EVP/CTO/CIO/CEO of Development and Consulting
Services.
In my project practices I used widely different processes and methodologies of SDLC depending on
domain, the type of projects, developers’ skillsets and experience, desirable calendar schedule based on
Waterfall, RUP, Agile/SCRUM/Kanban and their modifications, as well as providing organizational,
SDLC and BPM Consulting, BSC and KPI development and implementation.
I do have a successful spectrum of crises management projects’ cases in the past operating on different
levels and positions. I worked in different types of business domains and different companies operating
in the mission critical, real-time/embedded, networkable distributed, classical IT business applications of
different levels. My experience also includes big enterprise-level, Web- and cloud-based complex
systems’ development, maintenance & support for different industries, including government, military, IT
departments support, offshore development, product development, internet, e-commerce, security,
education, healthcare, telecom, finance, & retail sectors.
My recent focus was related to operational processes effectiveness and IT org-structures re-building,
financial effectiveness, budgeting and strategic management decisions, cost reduction, enterprise level
frameworks, big-scale complex applications implementation and support, infrastructure optimization,
business and software architecture development, recent mobile technologies usage and implementation,
SOA/RESTful/SaaS/ESB implementation, private cloud & its technologies building and implementation
as well as operating infrastructure support for big enterprise in retail, telecom and banking,
BPS/BPMN/BPEL, its optimization and automation.
2. I did participate and directly supervised over ~150+ projects of different scales, domains and technologies
holding different positions and roles in my previous career.
I also dealt with university teaching, training, coaching and mentoring practices in the past working in
Lviv Polytechnic University, Corporate Technical Universities and continuously on working places with
sub-ordinaries.
My recent employment in Svyaznoy Group of Companies on the position of CIO (IT Director) started in
October 2013. I initiated the IT infrastructure modernization, proposed and started to implement new
enterprise architecture approach as a base for future web-, on-line, private cloud, BigData and analytical
services. I initiated the new development practices implementation rebuilding the IT department OLA
standards of process for sub-units interconnections and interaction. One of the biggest challenges was to
keep alive, maintain and improve the already existing legacy systems and services and their SLA’s in
actual operating environment and in parallel to re-organize and re-build all internal IT infrastructure, IT
organizational structure, IT resourcing policies re-factoring old and building new services using new
technologies and architecture with no any negative impact on operating retail business.
Total effect of such changes could be counted in multi-millions saving scale for company budget
improving company SLA’s and better availabilities of many financial and retail services including better
MTTF of products and applications.
Before Svyaznoy I worked for SoftServe, a global software development outsourcing IT company, for 13
years, since 2000 holding different managerial positions. 4 last years of my employment, being on the
position of CTO, I was in charge of building up and leading Consulting Services’ Development Strategy
and Organization for both ISV and Enterprise type of clients in Healthcare, Finance, Telecom, Retail and
Education vertical business domains. Also I acted partially as CEO in order to develop a completely new
European market direction from the scratch (whole EMEA area). As the CTO of the company I was
responsible for the delivery of the technological excellence and competitive innovating solutions cross-
company in horizontal technological domains for all business domains. A wide range of services was
developed practically for every company's business lines and unit support. On the positions of VP, R&D
Services and VP of Technologies I developed the vision & concepts of such structures as Technological
Competence Groups, Corporate University and Certification Center. All of them were launched
successfully and function till these days. Then, R&D Department, System Architect Group, Solution
Consulting Services, Engagement Team, Business Analysis Office, Company’s Competence Models’ of
Functional Offices, Abiliton People Certification and Development Program, Abiliton SDLC Process and
Tools Programs, Partnership Programs, Centers of Excellence, Best Practices in Enterprise
Analysis/EAG, Business Analysis/BAO, Project & Program Management/PMO, Function Point
Estimation Methodology, Software Development/SDO, QC/QA and Test Automation Practices/QMO,
first Client Support Services Team, Company Staffing and Rotation Program Principles were developed
and put into life under my close supervision and advice from the scratch including the Competency
Model of Soft Skills for Middle Management (leadership, cultural differences, communication, effective
collaboration, client expectation management, analytical and advisory skills, etc.). On the position of
Strategic Business Unit Manager I built the most successful, technologically advanced and outnumbered
business unit with the multi-millions revenue scale up to 60+% of the whole company revenue at that
time and experienced significant growth on market presence for both company revenue and EBIT.
The numbers of applications and products developed under my close supervision and leadership were
finalists and many of them have been awarded in world-wide competitions in different business domains
(healthcare, construction, real-estate, retail, etc.) and among IT leaders (Microsoft, Apple, Google,
Adobe, etc.) which helped SoftServe to be recognized as a leading IT company in the industry over the
years.
3. Dividing my original business unit into 5 separate ones I helped to re-build and enforced the renewed
Delivery Organization structure with the most productive development units at that time.
Also I participated in establishing new ODC centers for the company throughout Ukraine, Russia and
worldwide (the USA, the UK and the Philippines).

effectiveness and company common revenue, reducing the down-time and increasing the time of
productive work.
On client support level it was re-structuring the clients support services, reducing the number of
incoming requests and building new motivation and certification program allowing us to reduce the
employee number up to 30% without the common production SLA’s support degradation. Obtained
saving of IT budget was relocated to increase the development forces.
On resource quality improvements it was successfully started internal trainings for newcomers and
existing staff in agile processes, new tools and technologies learning and training, knowledge sharing,
development and technical support technologies, standardization of development, maintenance and

applications co-working based on ESB and BPS/BPMN/BPEL approach (including data integration,
process orchestration and service-subscription models) allowed us to reduce the actual stock
information in the retail network from ~20-30 mins period till ~1.5-3 mins for whole Russian
Federation territory.
On perspective plans realization and in parallel to new software development, refactoring and
maintaining the set of legacy applications, we started to automate and build several technological
prototypes for future infrastructure improvements, ARTS-retail reference model compatibilities and
preparation for OMNI-channel readiness of retail infrastructure, building of Svyaznoy open retail-API
and improving the e-commerce platform (e-PaaS) for: - integration with Avaya phone stations, -
integration with Wi-Fi/MAC/IMEA using Juniper routers and SMS-based delivery notification, -

8. Summary: beginning from the end of 2013, through the whole 2014 and the beginning of 2015 there
were implemented, refactored and launched in production more than 20+ new business meaning
systems and subsystems of different types including technologies like 1C, Web-, services- and mobile-
applications, DWH based on Vertica, BigData using Hadoop and Casandra, and on-line services and
applications using Zimbra/Telligent system, structurally deployed within legacy, B2E, B2B, B2C and
B2G network segmentations with improving overall performance and improving of total software
MTTF by 15% in total corporate outline. Due to the implemented changes the operating and staffing
budget of IT Departments became the lowest in comparison to corporate revenue ratio in Russian retail
industry despite the dramatic rubble inflation in 2014. Given all mentioned activities and implemented
changed together with IT technological investments and resource development in new techs platforms
and infrastructure modernizations allowed for Svyaznoy to meet 3-5 years challenges in the best shape.
