Andrei jumped into programming in the early 1990s — it all started with a Sinclair ZX Spectrum computer constructed by his dad. At the age of 13, Andrei taught himself to code in Z80 assembly language and wrote a file manager that communicated directly with the disk controller.
In 2004, Andrei joined ScienceSoft as a QA engineer. But soon, as his passion for programming became evident, Andrei made a transition to a software development role. In 2014, thanks to his projects’ success and his great organizational skills, Andrei became a team lead. In his work, Andrei inspired colleagues to follow a quality-first approach and go above and beyond in exceeding expectations.
In 2016, Andrei was promoted to Senior Solution & Integration Architect. Since then, he has been designing and implementing efficient software solutions that improve business operations and help people live better lives.
During his career at ScienceSoft, Andrei has taken part in diverse large-scale .NET projects. The first prominent one was the development of security monitoring software for IBM/Consul. The solution helped organizations ensure internal security through comprehensive real-time reports on user behavior and system activity. Andrei’s other projects include the custom development of a connected car solution for a premier AI and data company and underwriting software for a global aviation insurer. The latter has an exemplary event-driven microservices architecture based on DDD, CQRS, and SOLID design principles and patterns.
What hasn’t changed over Andrei’s almost 20-year software development journey is his passion for programming and commitment to staying up-to-date with the latest advancement in the field. Andrei is experienced in multiple legacy and modern programming languages, software architecture types, and design patterns. He often hosts lunch and learn events for the .NET team and other ScienceSofters. Andrei also gladly shares his insights and experience with a broader audience: he writes for ScienceSoft’s blog and runs his own one — don’t hesitate to check them out to take a deep dive into modern solution architectures!
I like how Robert C. Martin says in his books, ‘The only way to go fast is to go well.’ Only by following proven software engineering practices and disciplines can one be sure that their software will gracefully scale and evolve over time.
