Seasoned .NET Full-Stack Developer & Technical Lead with 12+ years of experience building applications on the Microsoft stack. Expert in .NET Core, Azure, and modern React front-ends.
I am a seasoned .NET Full-Stack Developer & Technical Lead with over 12 years of experience building robust applications on the Microsoft stack. I combine deep technical expertise in .NET (C#, ASP.NET Core, EF Core), Azure (App Service, Functions, CosmosDB, DevOps pipelines), and modern React front-ends with proven people-management, architecture, and DevOps skills.
Part of the platform team working on improving performance, maintainability, availability and stability of the system. Much of the time spent on deep diving on SQL Server query optimization, refactoring existing parts of system to make them more maintainable, setting up integration tests and improving their speed, ease of use. Additionally developed various new prioritized features for the system.
Worked as a technical trainer giving workshops for various topics in Azure, mostly to prepare developers and administrators for Microsoft exams: AZ-400 Designing and Implementing Microsoft DevOps solutions, AZ-204 Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure, AZ-104 Microsoft Azure Administrator.
Relocated to Sweden to work as part of the new team to develop e-commerce platform as an upgrade for existing outdated system. Designed product management components, developed APIs and backend processing for product information management and incoming orders. Additionally handled Azure cloud infrastructure with Terraform, performed major Terraform upgrade. During the last months worked mostly with infrastructure optimizations and cloud cost reductions.
After some time performing line management duties I understood that management is not the career direction I want to pursue in future and I want to stay technical, so I took on technical architect duties for the teams I was managing and reduced management duties. I was part of the architect team in the company and was responsible for claims reporting solutions built in delivery center in Riga. I had close communication with developers, other architects, security team, cloud center of excellence and business stakeholders.
Teams and scope grew more with time and I took on greater responsibilities for managing developers in 3 different teams. During this time I was more focused on coaching developers, handling line management duties such as goal setting, performance review and salary reviews. Additionally spent 20-30% of time coding and developing features besides supporting teams in existing solution maintenance.
Scope of the work increased and more projects came in to delivery center in Riga for claims reporting solutions. Team grew to 4-5 people including myself working as a team lead. After developing multiple forms based solutions, decision was made to move in direction of chat based application. We built a solution based on Microsoft Bot Framework as core technology behind data gathering from users, React for user interface and .NET/NServiceBus for handling of data and integrations. As team lead I was responsible with requirement gathering together with Product Owner, communication with business stakeholders, supporting in incidents and problem solving.
Initial developer in delivery center in Riga working with customer facing claims solutions in Nordics. Developed web solutions (Angular JS in frontend, .NET in backend, Azure hosted) for customers to be able to report claims via web portal. Additional team members in Finland. With time scope increased to handle more claim types and more countries. Worked also on a project to move Norwegian travel insurance web site from Lotus Notes CMS which was outdated and not supported to EpiServer CMS. The team consisted of two developers and tester. I was responsible for overall design, architecture and implementation. Together with companies architecture team and security team designed highly available solution, delivered in production and maintained until moving to next projects.
Continued with work in the same team, but bigger focus on BizTalk Server development. Developed approach to deploy BizTalk applications side by side in the same physical server, but with different environments, therefore managed to reduce hosting costs by 40%. In daily work developed new BizTalk applications, investigated production incidents, monitored production environment. Was responsible for performing major BizTalk server upgrade.
Started career in a team working on solution for government agency. Solution based on ASP.NET Web Forms and Oracle database, hosted on-prem. Participated in feature and bugfix development. Focused on development in BizTalk Server as solution integrated with many other government agencies using various protocols like FTP, SFTP, SOAP, WCF, HTTP.
