Greetings
I feel to be an IT-guy in the most extensive meaning of IT.
Programming, systems administration of huge (10,000+) computing infrastructures, software development, implementation and integration of Business Applications and Customer Support for all of the above. 10+ years of experience in IT management. Read more in my CV.
This website is a good start to find any personal information about me – Mr. Nikolay Grishchenko – weather you are going to hire or blackmail me. I feel to be a radical extrovert so I am on a mission to keep the maximum info about myself public and indexed.
Unfortunately the Blog is mixed in English (5%), Russian (90%) and obscene Russian (5%), same as old blogs linked from the Russian homepage. One day I should reorganize all this stuff.
Since 2014 I have been intensively architecting and programming web applications. Great experience with tens of different AWS services. AWS Lambda in particular. I am the author and core contributor of the sosw - Serverless Orchestration of Serverless Workers tool: https://docs.sosw.app
Also have a look at my profile in GitHub: ngr

Interests
I am fond of mountain tracking and mountaineering. The highest peak so far is Mount Kilimanjaro 5,895 m (19,340 ft).
Figure skating both ice and roller was my passion for many years. Hope I am still able to do some tricks.
I used to like Italian red wines and Belgian wheat ales but have recently gave up any alcohol tasting.
I like playing turn-based strategies, mostly
"Sid Meier`s Civilization" Series. It took me almost 10 years to master "Immortal" difficulty level (in Civ 5 by that time).
