My name is Tatiana and I am a full-stack software engineer and engineering leader.
I moved to Denver, Colorado from St Petersburg, Russia when I was 19. I currently live in Denver metro area where I enjoy 300 days of sunshine and spend time with my awesome yellow lab Chelsea.
I am currently managing a team of 8 software engineers focused on rapid iteration and A/B testing to facilitate subscriber growth.
I managed a team of 3-5 engineers ranging from junior to principal both in person and fully remote. My responsibilities included one-on-ones, career development, agile ceremonies (standup, grooming, retro, planning, demos), working with product management (roadmap, breaking down high-level requirements into sizable cards, trade-off analysis), stakeholder communication, team OS, hiring and onboarding. In this role I have taken a product from concept to soft-launch, reduced knowledge silos and improved on-call workflow. As a player-coach, I also gave feedback in code reviews and completed cards.
I was a top performer on a small agile team responsible for feedback loop service (FBL), which we provide on behalf of 18 mailbox providers. I played a critical role in designing, developing, testing, and deploying version 2.0 of the application, transitioning from a jQuery/PHP/Oracle tech stack to React/Go/PostgreSQL/AWS. My team successfully migrated over 300,000 customer accounts with no rollbacks, data loss, or outages while still supporting legacy applications. After being promoted to Senior Software Engineer, I continue designing, developing, testing and deploying new features and bug fixes, as well as mentoring junior engineers.
Starting as a Support Developer, I helped my team achieve zero defect status in just a few months, addressing well over 1000 bugs in the application. I worked my way up to Core Developer in October 2013. I developed new features, enhanced existing tools, fixed defects, performed QA, pair programmed, and code reviewed junior developers. I also provided advanced support and troubleshooting of escalated issues.
